Info:
The Utalaze Torpedo Cruiser is based off of the frame of their Transport Cruiser. Equipped with 8 torpedo launchers, It is an all around more lethal version and designed for more aggressive purposes.

The other obvious upgrades to the design is the increase in the firing angle of its secondary guns, as well as two additional turret hardpoints for which to add to its arsenal. This, including the obvious addition of torpedoes, makes it less a transport and more of a traditional assualt ship; although it does not reduce its transporting capabilities.

Additional Info:
So, I decided to finish the upgrades to this thing; filling every spot (that i could see or think of) with framework blocks. In addition, this is actually the first version of the ship that i made.

The one that I uploaded first had removed the extended turret mounts for a more streamlined design. But as I've been playing with it in the game, it limited the attack angle against ships that were above me. And I prefer engaging enemies at that angle so...

Also, figured I'd give the ship its own faction and backstory. Basically a military-esk faction that prefers only a handful of ship designs, but specializes in those designs ability to be converted for various purposes; both military and civilian.

Also: The parenthese stats are what it would have if certain framework blocks were upgraded. Green in the back are FTL, Green Forward is shields, hologram for hangar, and a few of the others for various things. Obviously, as upgrades are made, additional power requirements will also increase.
