I'm too far away from either Python or Anaconda. I'm trying to grind a Python and at the same time hoping to build enough rep for a Clipper.
The things is I see alot of people using gimballed/fixed weapons, even on big ships like the Conda, Python and Clipper. I would assume that turreted weapons would be more helpful in a Conda especially for the 2 small bottom rear mounted hardpoints, or am I wrong?
Thanks and regards.
Personally Turrets are a no go for me, they fire until you overheat, then keep on going causing heat damage (this is based on trying in beta admittedly) and the only way of stopping that was to switch fire groups to stop them.
On the Anaconda I use the 2 small bottom hard points for seeker missiles, a lazy but fun option if a ship is running away, plus it is most satisfying to listen to and watch when they launch

On the original topic, for the money you would have a rock solid Python plus plenty of change, yes the Anaconda is a great ship but when it gets in trouble you struggle to run as it is slow.
The Python packs a huge punch but has a decent turn of speed as well, plus with the money you will have you can go for military hull as well as whatever choice of armament you desire.
