Does anyone have recommendations for a ship with a smaller back profile? (lemmy.world)

I want a ship that's harder to hit as I'm trying to get away. The starter ship has an okay back profile, but there's not enough inventory.

Some shuttles inevitably spawn as tubes, and some have the inventory I need, but as soon as they turn just a little bit they're pretty open. Sometimes I get hit by the AIs warning shot. They're also not generally that fast.

What I really need is a balance between inventory and getting hit less.

Beef up your shields and invest in a phase beam. The beam fills up your ships shields and can come in handy when you are trying to escape. Or you can say fuck it and take them out with your new defense.

You know the old saying:

“The best defense is a fully SX-class upgraded Infra-knife in adjacent supercharger slots”.

You know it's reached peak performance when the audio starts fucking up due to the overlapping firing sequence.

In fact the cooldowns are so high that the game stops the firing sequence before I've even reached 40% heat capacity.
