Direct mounts and pilot-slaved remote turrets are different assignments. See Pilot-controlled armament for documented slaving and crew override. Mount size alone does not establish installed gun size.
| Mount / group | Size / mounts | Fitted items per mount | Control evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| VariPuck S3 Gimbal Mount weapons | Size 3 · 4 mounts · quantity 1 |
| Direct pilot mount · Documented assignment |

4.10.2-LIVE.12881860. A bridge-controllable flag alone does not identify the pilot as operator. Documented pilot slaving is described separately above.
Current independent corrections are reflected in the facts above and in catalog search, filters and comparison. Imported reference data and immutable review history stay intact. Material corrections earn current hull credit once per contributor and independent reviewer, not per revision. Existing private ship wishlists can receive one in-app notice; no email is sent.
Practise control, target identification and disengagement before risking a demanding contract.
SC Nomads planning advice. The linked visual guides contain controls, illustrated steps and dated sources.
Use a suitable practice mode or safe permitted drill to learn targeting and your actual weapon groups.
Ready when: You can control the ship and recognize what fires.
The matrix component table is reference data. Check current fitting, power and ammunition before treating it as your combat loadout.
Check the contract, target identity and surrounding friendlies.
Ready when: You can distinguish the required target from nearby traffic.
Choose a first contract you can abandon without losing your whole session. Bigger weapons do not replace knowing the objective.
Check condition after each pass and use the agreed retreat call when control or systems deteriorate.
Ready when: The crew and ship return for services.
An escort succeeds by keeping the protected player moving safely, not by chasing every opponent.
Selected community reports, checked 2026-10-20. Confirm the current price and availability at the terminal before spending aUEC.
No dated offer included for this hull yet. This does not mean it is unavailable.
Rentals are temporary access, not ownership. The PU rental timer continues while logged out, and rented component loadouts cannot be customized. Daily rates above do not establish discounts for longer rentals. RSI rental rules (updated 2026-04-28).
In-game purchases are distinct from pledges and may be affected by Alpha resets. RSI in-game purchase guidance.
Pledge availability and real-money prices have not been checked in this snapshot. Official ship information. An in-game offer does not establish pledge availability or that a game package is included.
Identify what the pilot can actually fire or operate. Empty gunner and specialist stations are not free extra firepower.
2 advertised crew. This is an advertised crew reference, not a solo recommendation or passenger-seat count.
Record my Defender setup and resultsCall one target, assign occupied stations and agree the disengagement call. On larger hulls, include damage response in the plan.

The official 4.8 table distinguishes full, partial and basic implementations. A working console does not prove every component is physically accessible.
Walk the repair route and check the current implementation before assigning repair duties.

Accessible Size 1 and 2 components can be exchanged in flight. Larger components need hangar replacement.

A repaired destroyed component is not fully restored. If destroyed again, it needs docking before another repair.
Repair enough to return safely, then service the ship. Do not budget repeated destruction as unlimited repairs.
