How is field salvage determined?

In the starsiege campaign, the mission debriefing often had a "FIELD SALVAGE" section:

These were weapons, compnents, and (rarely) hercs that can be used in subsequent missions. I've noticed that the contents often vary, but I'm not sure how.
- Is it randomised?
- Is it based on the number of enemies you kill?
- Or objectives completed?
I've come across different theories on how to get better salvage. Some say you need to scan certain buildings in certain missions. I've also heard that it's based on how you kill hercs, although I'm not sure if they're conflating with Earthsiege 2, which had a more sophisticated salvage system.
