The Sunburst is an excellent ship. All of its turrets fire forward, giving it superior forward firepower, however it only shoots 3/4 turrets in most other directions. It is shaped like a fighter, and it slightly larger than most VHF's, allowing it to actually be viable when used in combat in cockpit view like a fighter rather than turret steering, taking advantage of its forward firepower. It also has a decent cargo capacity for a freighter and mining capability, making it a very cheap and reliable ship for beginners who want something they can mine, trade, and do missions with.
