Originally had two PPCs but the heat was way to high for it, so I went with two Large Lasers, and brought the heat down some what. Still runs hot.

Given time and plenty of paper, a philosopher can prove anything.

The armor's way too thin for the available tonnage. There are 25-ton fighters with more armor.
The light armor, though, is very consistent with your designs, Karagin. Combat vehicles, fighters, 'Mechs, you always design them thin-skinned compared to canon designs of the same weight class.

I do? I will check into that, since it seems to me that I tend to get a bit too much armor on them.

Is this a bit better? I think it has way to much armor.
