a rather interesting experiment that I have built recently because the ship itself has almost no shield HP but has a abnormally high shield regeneration (ship only has 8K shields but about 5k regeneration) witch makes the ship completely immune to shots that deal less then 5K damage the ship has has a large amount of point defence turrets (the ship has enough turret slots for many more but I could not be bothered to add it)
so what is this abserd combination actually useful for;
well it should come as to no surprise that when people think of a ship that has less then 8K shields they do not expect it to be able to ignore any amount of damage because they usually take some time to fully regenerate but this ship can fully regenerate its shield in just over a second so put it simply someone might underestimate this ship and use a smaller ship that won't be able to actually penetrate the shield of this ship
since the ship has a large amount of point defence turrets any ship that uses missiles as its primary weapon will struggle due to the ship simply just shooting down all of the missiles that are sent its way and if its secondary weapons are not large enough they also will not be able to get through the abserd amount of shield regeneration
downsides;
it should also be obvious that anyone who uses a ship with a decently sized weapon that is not a missile or pretty much any cannon-cannon weapon would be able to easily drain the shield despite the high regeneration
the ship also looks abserd from some angles
