Review (4.88)

The CT-49X "Gull" is a good value for any beginning player, or an inner-house merchant who rarely leaves the relative safety of Liberty space. With a package price of 6,700,000 credits, and a ship-only price of just about 4,000,000 credits, it's on the cheap end of the spectrum. It comes with 5 turret mounts, a cruise disruptor, and a counter measure mount, and the cargo is stored in cargo pods, which are required to have a cargo capacity, and are interchangeable. This gives you some genuine customization for your ship, as you can buy different shapes and colors, which is always nice, though I just prefer the drab pods. The 5 turrets are mounted 2-up, 1 on either side, and 1-down, with 4 of the 5 turrets being mounted on the cab of the ship and the last being mounted on the upper rear. You can fire all 5 turrets forward and backwards, 4 to either side, 4 up, and 3 down. The power core is adequate for the 5 turret mounts, allowing you to hold suppressing fire with nearly any variation of transport turrets you can mount. I prefer 2 civilian transport turrets on either side, 2 Dulzians on the top and bottom, and 1 Charon on the top rear mount, for versatility. It's also a good idea to put the strongest shields that you can, for 100,000 strength (and 2,000,000 credits). The ship isn't the strongest, with a hull of only 50,000, so using a MK VIII armor upgrade or MK IV heavy armor upgrade grants you 125,000 to 150,000 armor respectively. The ship is about as maneuverable as you'd expect for a small transport, but the main issue is its long but thin body, which can make turret steering a bit of a hassle. Even with 5 turrets, the strongest shields, and a MK VIII armor upgrade, you have the ability to carry 925 cargo; this is adequate for profitable trade within only a few systems, and you can quickly earn back the credits spent on the Gull in this manner. Long distance travel in this ship, however, can be somewhat hazardous, as you won't be much of a match for even marginally skilled pirates. All in all, it's a good ship to use as a stepping stone in your journey to becoming a distinguished merchant. Or you could just hang around Liberty for a while!
