It's a BIG thing and BIG things shouldn't have turrets, right?

He's not either!

And the Hara is a civvy installation (or as civvy as you get with Shivans), and is meant to be guarded and/or rear-lines.

It's deep in Shivan space, there's no need to guard it.

Just say I've got different things in mind for it

     As fun as that sounds, it really isn't.
     I was at one time considering using the Hara for my campaign and just for fun I threw it in a mission and shift-Killed it a bunch of times (until the HP hit zero). Then I proceeded to watch it blow up for like, 10 minutes, on 8x speed . . it just kept exploding and exploding and exploding and exploding forever and ever. Finally I thought, screw this and just ended the mission.

     Very unsatisfying.
