Alpha 2: "Sir, we have an incoming contact...AGH...HELP!!!!
*SCHHHHHHOOOOPPPPP* *BOOM*"
Turret Ship: "W00t!"
Turbines for sucking in and slicing ships you mean....oh wait, no air in space...damn. Um...that would make one hell of an aerial battleship...like... a sort of sky gunship...
WHICH REMINDS ME, can someone PLEASE model the Egg Carrier from Sonic Adventure 1 if it hasn't been already? That ship RULED!

One more thing...this turret....downsized...placed on almost ANY fighter as a standard weapon hardpoint's firing location...would look badass. I can see this for example being used to upgrade the look of the Herc 2's guns...the current stick-thing ones sux =P
