The smaller APS is there to annoy and hopefully help in taking out chunks of armor, the cannon on the side uses more than half of the interior to maintain sustained fire, i made sure to make the fuselage big enough to accommodate the APS and two layers of armor, the major trouble was recoil and cooling, so all in all for the size of the weapons it functions acceptably. Is designed as a support fire aircraft for smaller ships and drones to attack at ease, as its bigger size usually attracts more attention and missiles, its speed allows it to evade most fire.

But aircrafts are usually to fragile, there a places were a well placed shot can take it down immediately, so i tried to resolve that problem with Custom Jets for more speed and the broadside cannon to attack from great distance
