The Phantom gunboat is similar in design to the standard Type-52 Troop Carrier. However, it is used as a combat superiority craft rather than as a troop transport. It is equipped with a chin-mounted [[heavy plasma cannon]] and four side-mounted [[plasma turret]]s - two on either side - and one aft plasma turret. Strangely, all of the turrets, including the chin-mounted gun, seem to fire the same type of plasma torpedo. These torpedoes are essentially a miniature version of the starship weapon of the same name. It is capable of emitting a powerful [[Energy shielding|energy shield]] that can deflect missile attacks.<ref name="LNoS"/> | The Phantom gunboat is similar in design to the standard Type-52 Troop Carrier.
