An interesting design, but perhaps not what I’d do.

I’d probably go with a large pulse laser and a large chemical laser with a couple tons of ammo instead of the ER large laser, ER medium laser (respectively) and targeting computer. I believe that works out on the tonnage.

Yours has a bit more range on the primary weapon, and both are more accurate overall, but I can’t really stomach the idea of losing over 10% of your total mass to heat sinks, if chemical lasers are a possibility.

Edit: ah, forgot about the Artemis IV systems adding to turret mass. Still, that only looses you a half ton of armor.

This is a Clan Invasion era unit. No Chemical. And I waffled on the LPL.

Ah, ok. Your design had a date of 3061 on it, and it’s my understanding that chemical lasers were resurrected in 3059.

Either way, yours works.
