It retrieves technology. Not actual ships. I have no idea what kind of technology though.

The only tech available on planets are ships, but as BM said, it will get stuck.

Yet, they are not technology, but ships.

Lemme try to decipher this. You want this ship to fly to a prewarp that holds ships and "steal" their technology so you can build them at your shipyard?

If that is so.. erm.. no way dude
1st -> lots of ships on prewarps are inventions - they don't belong into your shipyard because they are not perfectly ballanced
2nd -> even if you steal normal ship "tech".. that would make one able to build any races ships - it somehow defeats the principles of the race logic
3rd -> Huh?

If it only provides warp for itself then why would you keep it in your fleet. It shields a ship, so it is just an expensive shield generator.
