This warship class is designed to counter smaller ships, leveraging its wide arc pulse cannons, light turrets, and its tracking heavy lasers.
Gunships are typically vulnerable to Corvettes, but high-skilled pilots can often win such engagements anyways as long as they manage their distance; maneuverability is the lifeline of a gunship.
