Remember, it ain't done yet. Also keep in mind the quad guns (R2D2 with two double-barrels) can traverse 360 degrees and elevate from 90 degrees straight up to down till the barrels practically smack the hull; same with the small doubleguns. The weapons may be a bit exposed, but they have absolutely huge firearcs!

Tail. Definitely.
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Tail it is!

Added Bridge Tower and Quad-MTL turret just aft. Also installed sensor globes on the tower in what i like to call the 'ears' arrangement.

Also thinking about fabbing a turret mount about halfway in size, power, and number between the twin-lasers and the quad-turbos..

Medium Quads Ahoy!! I fabbed a medium quad-turbolaser turret, mounted them in various places on the hull, and rearranged a few things. I added rear-arc firepower as well, although I might upgrade a few of the laser turrets to quad-turbos.

Bah, had to fix a rather embarassing error regarding the starboard secondary torch-nozzle (inner nozzle). Plus I increased the diameter of the medium turbolaser towers slightly...
