BDS my new favorite little ship

I adore my lil DBS. I named her Dory. I found that for weapons a pair of fixed C2 burst lasers paired with two fixed C1 cannons works fantastically against anything DBS sized and bigger. 3 1/2 pips to weapons and 2 1/2 pips to engines with a bit of clever thrust control and occasional FAOFF you won't even need to bump your shieldsNever used one of these but wanted to go back any fly some of the smaller ships for a while. Spent a lot of time in clippers, dropships, pythons, etc.
I can not believe how good this ship is. Fast, quick in the turns, decent firepower. Might be in this one for a while.
The D-Bag is one hell of a ship, better not to be underestimated, especially with low signature fitting and running silent.
Love it.
Love it.

The DBS is the Lakon Diamondback Scout, arguably one of the best starfighter type ships in the game at the moment.
i have been flying it for a while, i love his cockpit, everything A class good armour, and a couple of days ago a commander in a FAS kicked my butt just in few seconds... now i don t feel secure anymore

Ha! Yep, it's a brilliant ship, but the FAS is a heavy fighter with surprising pace and agility - there's no shame in losing that fight.
I've kept mine because it's such fun to fly, but for sheer kill power the FAS is seriously hard to beat.
speaking of which, is there any advantage to using an FAS over the FGS?Ha! Yep, it's a brilliant ship, but the FAS is a heavy fighter with surprising pace and agility - there's no shame in losing that fight.

Good question, which I'm unqualified to answer. Anybody?
FAS has speed and agility, FGS has durability and firepower. Both are great ships.

Why would you fight stars?
I'll be sticking with the FAS for now. After my evil infiltration to gain access to the FAS was complete, I high tailed it out of 109 Piscium, dumping 8t of biowaste as a parting gift to the Federation.
I laughed [evilly] all the way back to Cernobog.
Mind you, 'Ensign Tomsk the 192nd Duke of Damona' does have a certain ring to it...
