This is not a generic repair-service delay or a salvage-contract ship state.
Applies to Alpha 4.9.x LIVE · Current
Current conclusion
No reliable workaround is currently known once this repair state occurs.
What not to try
Character Repair is not a recovery for this stuck ship-repair state
High risk
Character Repair does not reset ship or vehicle bugs, so it cannot recover this stuck repair state.
