In general, high speed with great evasion ability usually means light armor for balance reasons. Toss in nice weapons for flair & the ship still has 2 clear weaknesses. (The alcohol levels of those piloting it & their subconscious curiosity of finding out the most creative ways to fly the ship into the nearest star, planetary body, or other nearby vessels.)
Yeah. He did not hypothesize it would have high maneuverability and I would guess something like the 600i, just more spartan and less flexible, and less easy to mod. Probably 1/3 the size too.
for those interested
I have potentially spotted them near the Terra-Hadrian jump point 0.0800000 lat -8.00000000 long 180.00000000 But it is type the "Belligerent duck"

"Belligerent duck" creatures tend to quack at you if they don't like the quality of bread crumbs you offer. Belligerent swans however will attack, so swing away & happy killing those vile beasts. I wonder if they taste like chicken too. Hmmm
So what's on size, crew, etc? Anything you can copy and paste? Is this smaller than the Connie? Mass/thrust ratio better? Any pics? Does it look to have a hidable radar cross section? I do love the look of the Crusader ships.

Still need to find out more. Looks like the manned turrets are remote manned, which means they will not work when spiked yet still need gunners--worst of all worlds. The Dorsal looks rear facing only and the ventral front facing only, so not especially happy with them.
OTOH, functions like a Sentinel with some cargo space. . .worth further investigation. And it is beautiful.
