     The Kimstat is the top of the Muron Dynamics line of
recovery vehicles, designed to bring in derelict ships and other
space jetsam.  The high cost of the Kimstat leaves it out of the
range of most of the smaller operators in that field, but
ownership of a Kimstat is something that they all strive for.
       In addition to the listed sensors, Kimstats are equipped
with extra-long range sensors that can detect the presence
(though not the exact nature) of metallic debris from up to 3
light years away.  The Empire has used Kimstats to recover
damaged fighters, especially the newer and more advanced TIEs
before they could fall into the hands of the Rebel alliance. 
Kimstats are also the primary ships of Xenoarcheologists
interested in recovering primitive spacecraft.  Finally, the
Kimstat is the dream vehicles of treasure hunters.  In fact, a
pair of Kimstats, working together, located and brought back 5 of
the legendary Iofan Wing Superfighters.
