Interesting - had been considering purchasing the LRS Retro as a secondary ship to my Science Odyssey.

Whilst I love the Oddy, and would have to say that it will remain my primary ship, I have on occasion swapped to my Nova refit when have wanted to fly something a little more 'agile' than the Oddy - assume the LRS fits the bill in that sense and would have the sub-system targeting that the Oddy, as a cruiser, lacks - but am wondering if it's worthwhilse investing in it now, especially since it doesn't sound as if the armor is the 'livesafer' it's supposed to be and I don't have the best equipment to add to the ship.
