Default Weapons options for a Corvette

I'm thinking there should be a detachable armament wing we could attach to our vettes, to vaporize truck drivers who crush vettes on highways, or just anyone who is a hazard to our driving lane.

that'll make them think twice about cutting vettes off eh ?
Maybe a bit smaller, so it doesn't look so conspicuous.
Best part, is that it can be wired up to the HUD , for targetting !!!



BUT HELL, everyone KNOWS, that it would look best on a C3 right ??

I have long thought that my car was invisible because of the number of people that pull out infront of me etc. To me it appears to be yellow but to the rest of the world I guess it is transparent.

I guess, it would come primed, so you can paint it to match your car...
to match a two tone job, you could paint the mounts and missiles different colors.

From experience here (USMC LAV-25 - Mogadishu, Somalia circa 1992) - to rule the streets all you need is a 25mm Bushmaster main gun coming out of the air intake below the emblem...HUD controls aiming - quadrant/deflection, paddle shifter controls on the steering wheel control API/HE (Armor Piercing Incendiary/High Explosive ) mix and main gun/coax selection. The turn signals share a couple of 7.62 coax Machine Guns to clear up the small stuff as you roll along...trigger on the shifter with a flip up safety...I’ll assume no need for target selection at the 6...just out-run everything!

Okay…’nugh dreaming – back to work

Mmmmmmm I like your style,

thoufgh speaking as a DS tanker veteran, and one prone to overengineering, I would think to add a turret mounted smoothe bore cannon, with in line coax and day night sighting slaved to the Hud located in the dog house on the turret. add the smoke grenage launchers all controlled witht the stick converted into joy stick controls for firing while shifting capabilites
