For all that bad stuff that bad people use.
Weapons
- Palmers, unmarked and with the 'warning squeak' function disabled.[1] See also Alliance Weapons for the legitimate variant.
- "Hedgehogs," physical missiles bearing thermonuclear warheads, surrounded by rods that pulse radiation after detonation. Physical missiles of this type are extremely unusual, having been superseded by laser fire and entropy packets.[2]
- Dusters: Capable of cloaking objects. Generally considered too expensive to completely hide pirate ship[3], but it's not out of the question.
Other Technology
There's probably a fair bit of it in In Extremis.
