I started using this ship and like it for the most part as it has more modularity and cargo space than others in its series of the same size but it has one particular problem thats not immediately obvious, There is not really a way to get rear end point defense coverage. The turret mounts next to the airlocks give you good frontal coverage but even placing defenses on the engines leaves a good chunk of the rear uncovered. There also isnt really a flat surface back there that can be used to install a turret mount so it results in you getting hit by torpedoes a lot more than you really should.
