Veteran Comments
The meat-and-potato point defense weapon in Freespace 2 it is used by every race and virtually every warship (GVC Aten doesn't count), and some non-warships (GTFr Triton) the GTC Aeolus actually makes most of its warship kills with flak rather than its weak SGreen.
This is the stuff that usually takes out bombs, and sometimes bombers (although beams are usually what do them in). Against players, it has a sort of psychological effect that sometimes makes them pull away from an attack run sooner.
