PopUp Turrets

[GothiousRex]

do the popup turrets take up an additional 2 dtons?
ie. 3 dtons in total

or is the dtonnage including the 1 dton of the turret in the 2 dtons?

I think it is just 2 tons, ie double a standard turret.

one for the turret..
one for the popping mechanism...

Can you do both pop-up and fixed on the same turret, to get concealed missile tubes?

In my opinion, most probably not - this seems to be two different turrets,
a fixed one with "weapon x" and a pop-up one with (additional) missile tu-
bes ?

your going for the vertical launch system that is on a Kirov class Battle cruiser
except you want the doors hidden
I say yes as it is only special effect since the missile can do the reorienting on it's own
you would still have to allocate the tonnage and cost and be limited to the up to 3 per turret
think of it as opening your gun ports on a sailing ship
also I would say that you could only have missiles in that turret
no mixing weapons
