The Turret is a reliable single-shot cannon for general combat. It combines quick tracking, a 0.3-second reload, and steady bullet fire without requiring a separate ammunition purchase.

How it works
A healthy Turret fires one 10-damage bullet per shot, then reloads for 0.3 seconds. Its base range is 10 before Fire-Control Radar bonuses and current upgrade effects.
Best uses
Build a dependable all-purpose damage core.
Layer several firing arcs around a broad hull.
Use rapid single shots to finish exposed enemy modules.
Placement and hull design
Spread Turrets across different sides of the ship so the whole weapon package is not disabled by one collision or blast. Forward mounts get clean lines but take more return fire.
Synergies
Fire-Control Radar for range, lead, and spread control.
Overdrive and Reload upgrades for faster single-shot timing.
Failure points and counterplay
Bullet travel makes poor lead visible against fast lateral targets.
At half HP or lower, damage output and reload performance are reduced to 70% module output.
