I really like the update, big fan of the Mining Laser changes!
The change that worries me is the addition of Manticore (LP), specifically the combination of Safety Overrides and Large missile slot, I think this ship will collide with the role of Colossus Mk.II, Manticore (LP) being a direct upgrade in almost all aspects, normally this wouldn't be a problem, but its from the same faction.
A suggestion, for making the Manticore (LP) unique, it could get rid of Safety Overrides and their shields to get a second ship system just like Vanguard.
Example: Canister Flak and Missile Autoforge, would be potentially very offensive but without a shield, only one missile slot (Large), 750 armor and 80 speed I think would be balanced.
