Belvat

A Battlecruiser with a torpedo.

Description
Despite having a torpedo, this ship is not well suited for sieges but is a brawler focused on spinal weapons, with unique bottom-mounted turrets. A good hit and run ship against enemy Battleships, Miners, some Dreadnoughts and Freighters.

Advantages

 * High firepower from its phasers and torpedo.
 * Good for taking out Fighters, Frigates, and Swarmers.
 * Well defended bottom.
 * Can solo siege a Starbase using torpedoes.
 * Absolutely destroys base siegers (assuming they rush in.)

Disadvantages

 * Easy to counter while sieging bases.
 * Vulnerable Topside.
 * If you approach from the top all your lasers and flak can hit but it also gives enemy ships an advantage since the majority of their weapons can hit you.
 * Slow torpedo making it ineffective against small ships or anything moving too quickly.
 * Can be difficult to aim torpedoes.

Strategy

 * Some players prefer this over the Razor Wing since it can support more roles. (i.e: Siege and PVP.)


 * Attack from above/below to try and get the jump on other ships before they can realize where you are.

Trivia

 * Used to use an odd weld script resulting in offset parts, Which as of Version .52i Has been Fixed.
