Well damn, this is easily in my top 10 favourite designs. Interesting choice with the relatively low (for its size) shield capacity compensated by the high recharge rate. Not sure how it would work against high accuracy, high alpha (beam/pulse, beam/beam, missile/beam spam) weapons, especially that the weapon setup requires mid-to-close range, so by chance you'll be already under fire by the time you can take your first shot... but if they can't oneshot the shields and the regen kicks in, you have a solid chance.
