Two points:

1) White Sharks struck me as an unhappy compromise between Barracudas (-2 to-hit bonus) and Killer Whales (lots of damage). I'd switch to one or the other.

2) WOW! That's a hefty price tag. You could build a sizeable, no-frills warship for less. But, then again, more planets can build dropships than warships.

Nice anti-fighter and anti-dropship dropship.

Cool. I can't help but notice it's better armed, armored, and faster than some corvettes.

True it would munch some corvettes, but this reflects more of the design philosphy of the Storm Haven Protectorate, my Alt history campaign.
