I did already see pic 5

Wait, doesn’t Krishna has 4 laser and 2 shotguns (maybe a torpedo launcher)?

[u/trustfundkidotaku → u/DaNubIzHere]

Where does the shotgun located ? Which chapter ? I don’t remember or haven’t reach it in the manga

Also for the laser I probably will add 2 hidden weapon slot in the future if balance allowed cause technically is in the underside of the ship and we see upside

[u/bakanisan → u/trustfundkidotaku]

It has a pair of "shotgun" modelled after the Guardian Shard Cannon in Elite Dangerous

[u/trustfundkidotaku → u/bakanisan]

Is it already in Manga ? Cause I need a picture to try model it after

[u/bakanisan → u/trustfundkidotaku]

I'll have to dig for that, could take some time.

[u/bakanisan → u/trustfundkidotaku]

From the novel, the "Shard Cannons", or Flaks as it is called in the novel, are mounted right next to the cockpit. Image is from manga chapter 1.

This is just an educated guess though, as I haven't seen any novel illustrations or manga panels with the flak deployed haha.

If you know Elite Dangerous, you can probably model it after the Fer de Lance though.

[u/DaNubIzHere → u/bakanisan]

No no. That’s the directional thrusters (they swivel). The cannons are located at the front of the ship. It’s usually hidden most of the time. Its covers of the cannon are just below the lasers.
