    Old feature.

    When near death, you have a slim chance of NPC ships coming to your aid to rescue you. I think its a Fed-only thing, even seen it in PvP. May just be RA.

    No it is an inate RA 3 skill that gives a 5% chance for a NPC ship to come and help you once your hull gets below a certain point.

    RAdm/3 Space skill (Common to all branches): Fleet Support.

    If your hull drops below 50%, there's a small chance that a friendly ship will show up to help.

    Been in-game from the start, TTBOMK.
