Tbh, I think my only gripe with this ship is that it's tac abilities don't seem to flow as well as most raptors and escorts I've flown. I can't keep constant uptime on my APs, but other than that, this ship is great.

Anyone who says it's trash really needs to rethink either their build of how they're flying it. If you're trying to use it like an escort, you're doing it wrong. If you're trying to use it like a cruiser, you're still doing it wrong. It's a destroyer. A hybrid escort/cruiser. Use it like one. Stop trying to do the escort dance or the zombie cruiser.
