This point defense turret on wheels will automatically lock onto missiles, bombs, torpedoes and small ships. It will not lock ground vehicles or NPCs.
New Vehicle - Star Citizen MDC for $45 is nice!

It’s interesting and certainly worth investing in if you have a single space to defend from missiles, but it’s worth noting these are essentially a single S1 gun each, so around 300dps. You are not going to deter fighters with these unless you have 20 or more of them. The missile variants will probably be better but then you need to go restock them.
Miners, yeah. I think forget them for military bases.
With the shield and cooler left off they have zero signature due to their excellent armor, so likely they cannot be targeted by a fighter flying in with missiles until they fire. They get first shot. That’s reason to load missiles. This also makes them useful for recon. Use them for things that don’t require real fighting and they win. A couple guys with rail guns in one of these could be the perfect incursion team in many instances.

Well, as with all vehicles. If you buy them for cash you are looking for a "cheap" LTI token (*) and probably a 3 Month Test(TM)-ride.
Is it usefull? In certain situations it might be.
If you hear your PD-Gun go off you know you better look for cover fast. Thanks for the heads-up.
Apart from that it's kinda big for a one person ride. But that's the trend these days , right?
Looking at you SUVs...
(*)It still is 45$ after all. Thats like 4 packs of eggs these days.

Bingo.
When I buy vehicles, they stay active in my hangar for gee-whiz fun until they are available to buy in game stores.
"TEST(TM)-ride period"
Then they are upgraded, or go into buybacks as reserve tokens. Hopefully the ballistic PDC's on this make it into game stores soon too.
Picked one up - will park it next to persus when landed - you can never have enough PDC right???
