FS2 Tech Room Description
Little is known about the SFr Asmodeus line of freighters. With a strong hull and four weapon turrets, they are the most dangerous Shivan freighters to attack. Nothing is known of the cargo Asmodeus freighters commonly carry.

Veteran Comments
Oddly enough, it comes with a Disruptor in FS1, which is at best a waste of a turret for a freighter. Big, bulky, slow, and probably the worst nightmare of an escorting Shivan fighter wing. These things hold their cargo in a weird position where you could easily ram it off. The ship's only saving grace is the flak cannon in FS2, though it's not nearly enough to deter anything larger than a Pegasus.
It looks easy to kill from its weak turret coverage, but the truth is the Asmodeus is actually the Shivan freighter most likely to survive having an angry Herc spewing missiles go afterburning past because of its superior durability. Like the Terran Chronos, it is feebly armed but sturdy enough not to explode when sneezed on by an Athena.
