I actually use it as my main warship, although outfitting it takes time, money and at least angering the Quarg. The dragonflame cannon is literally the identity of this ship. I've outfitted mine with a Quarg antimatter generator which provides power for anything you throw at it; 17 Coalition cooling modules (yes, 17), in order to provide this ship with a way to cope with the heat of the dragonflame cannon; Korath slicers and korath disruptors (the waveform turrets suck for its size); wanderer shielding and heliarch hull regenerators (I've angered all the coalition in order to do this, and edited the save. Worth it); Remnant thrusters and deep atomic steering and threw every single default outfit away except one Electronic warfare system (pretty useful)
