MISC Fortune, MISC Starlancer, or MISC Expanse?

Reference: MISC speculation found in this ship-leaks video first shared by Shadow Reaper:

P.S. Also wondering how long it will take CIG to advertise the MISC 'Freeloader' as an April Fools Joke ship one of these years.

If the Lancer had the rotating guns from the first ad, how would the pilot control them? He can’t hit what he can’t see.
Umm this isn't 1949 the computers would automatically lock on to a target either side and BOOM (twice).

Oh I forgot Cig is like Captain America reminiscing over Peggy. Trying desperately to make a futuristic space game using world war two technology and tactics.

Erm, we’ll let me just point out that no one signed up for pilot controlled guns that aren’t pilot controlled.

Hey look, it was a trailer, not a promise. They’ve broken their word often enough that we can focus on that if we need to complain. Where are the spike missiles, and the electronic warfare, and the consumable sub-components, and the mines, and the AI blades, and the NPC turret gunners, and the drones, and the 100 virgins, and the. . .

What?

Oh. Never mind.

I've been wondering if they could be pilot controlled limited motion frontal unless you have remote gunners in the seats, then they are turrets with full range of motion?

Wouldn't that make the 'lancer just the most fun little gunship, 3x turrets and the pilot concentrating on missile deployment, especially for the MIS...?

It would explain the need for a crew of four and give the freelancer a near unique multicrew proposition for a ship it's size.

Starfarer would become a lot meaner too if those pilot controlled cheek guns got the same treatment.
