Heavy Gunship
"Why is a Light Attack Frigate scarier than a Heavy Gunship? Because a Heavy Gunship has more armor and can't keep up."
Heavy gunships are a bit more of a direct attack ship, compared to a Light Attack Frigate. With heavier armor slowing it down but allowing it to withstand a beating. Sadly these can be outmaneuvered by smaller ships fairly easily. However this is usually not an issue unless the smaller ship survives being shot at.
