A Mephisto could easily fit inside the huge SAC 3 cargo container this thing carries around. It's thinly armored and has bad turret placement, however, making it easier to destroy.


Yes, the HTL looks sexy, but it is a very weak freighter. Killing it shouldn't be hard at all, as it is only protected by a handful of extremely weak turrets.


This poor excuse of a "dangerous target to attack" gets vaporized in seconds. It has extremely weak hull, and blows to bits before you can say boom. I think Tritons are much better in every respect, honestly.


Basically the Shivan version of the GTFr Triton. Big, weak, and carries a massive but poorly-armored cargo container. Its tech description is a lie, as noted. The single Standard Flak gun on the Triton has a better damage per second than six Shivan Light Lasers, and the Dis only has four. The Dis has not one hitpoint more of armor than the Triton, either.
