Perhaps you could write it up as a 3025 era prototype meant to compete with the Crusader design? I'm not quite sure how this design improves on the former but......

Hold on a second, here.
According to Crouton Command, Both of your lasers are only made in Cappellan space, the LRMs are from the FWL, the SRM 6 is from the FS, the engine is made in both the FS and FWL, and the structure, comms system, and targeting/tracking system all come up as absent, possibly suggesting that they are no longer made.
This means that the only way that this thing could even exist would be if it was from the old Star League.
Here's the site address if you don't believe me:

That's nice...and do tell us where all of those nice Martell and Magna Lasers that more or less on everything are made?
On the other had the company names where picked at random...and since fluff is changable...
