They are, and you need to fill that hardpoint anyway, the one to go with is the Nuclear mine. It takes skill and perserverance to use them effectivley without getting blown up yourself. and as said before, it is most effective verses vanilla ships.

Yeah, it's easy to kill yourself with them if you don't use them well. Dedicate a button to releasing mines, but leave them unactivated on your weapons list (the one in the lower right with green text). That way you don't release too many, and you can be more precise.
since your joining a lawful based faction, no unlawful weapons for you obviously.
so, heres a good loadout (i use this on my merc bomber, and its highly effective imo)
4 x ARCHANGEL/EXCALIBUR/THOR HAMMER codenames.
1 x Nuclear mine dropper
1 x Supernova antimatter cannon
5 x 1 x Minirazor (my merc has an inferno, but since ure lawful, u cant use it. plus, a minirazor is just as good)
you could exchange two of the codenames for delibitators, if you prefer having some shield busters on your bomber. i personally dont need em, since my inferno is pretty handy at taking out shields ;)
missiles, steer clear of them. as well as nova torps. if you dont know how to use nova torps, i wont recommend u use em. if the turret is forward firing, get an adv delibitator turret, or dont bother, since u wont be bothering to looking at ure rear just to fire one turret:P
You'll need a good rep to get debbies, but they can be purchasedat Ageira bases, Detroit sells advanced debs, and pueblo sells improved debs, level 8 and 9 respectively, given your joining Lane Security Ageira rep shouldn't be hard to acquire.:)
Saint Del is considered a holy healer of diseases of children, but also as a protector of cattle.
If you don't care about only killing fighters with mines and supernova and just wanna nail some cap ships, take something like this. As far as I know best buster lawfuls can get is Imp Debils, any others?
