What's not to like? Good armor, good firepower, acceptable range, and cheap. I've never been a fan of the AC/5, but it works well enough here. And the SRMs crit seek and cover the min range. Fast, too.

I got the idea from a picture of the old J. Edgar: twin missile systems flanking a barrel. I then got to thinking on how to make the arrangement better. My first reaction was, naturally, to make the Small Laser a Medium and up the racks from 2-shots to 4, but that didn't really strike my fancy. Next was essentially the same, only the missile racks were 6-shot and speed was 9/14. That was okay, but I wasn't really satisfied. I went through about 9 different designs before I finally arrived at this one.
