It has plenty of rear mounted/turreted weapons too.

It looks very nice, but I think it would be better suited as an assault ship against space platforms (or ships with low mobility), because all those big guns look fixed so that you must turn the entire ship in order to target.

I don't want to be a joy killer, but I think that such fixed guns, no matter how cool they look, are better suited for small ships and/or interceptors, that can compensate with their mobility the blind spots in weapons arcs of fire .

i guess these guns would be there to shred other capital ships to pieces which are just as bad in maneuvering or even worse than this one.

Very impressive. I'd hate to be on the receiving end of that.

I'd also love to see the Dragon mothership firing it's own salvo. :wink: :wink: :wink:
