Imperial Cutter - Surface Base Defender - AX Build - Elite Dangerous

Greetings Commanders,
Welcome to my AX Imperial Cutter build video. This ship has been built as a surface base defender, very similar to the AX Type 10 Defender that I built earlier as both ships share similar characteristics regarding firepower and manoeuvrability. ;)
In this video you will see how effective she is at killing Thargoid Scouts and Cyclops Interceptors, and a kill shot on a Basilisk! She is also capable of taking out Medusa Interceptors too, but unfortunately I didn't record the footage!! :(
NOTE, THIS IS WITH THE USE OF JUST BASIC AMMO!!
Being able to use the Station for frequent repairs and re-arming during the fight now means we do not need AFMU's, Repair Limpets Controllers and Cargo Racks, thus giving us freedom to use these slots for more Armour and/or Module Reinforcements. This now makes it much easier to take on tougher Interceptors. :)
To unlock the Long Range Guardian Shard Cannons, you will need a Mbooni Permit.
You need to get Allied with Azimuth Biotech, head to LHS 1163 and go to the Mega Ship 'Glorious Prospect' and keep taking missions until your allied with A.B.
As soon as you are allied the permit will be available.
Once you have it, go to the Guardian site SYNUEFE EU-Q C21-10 and collect the required materials. Then head to the Mbooni system, land at the Planetary Station called 'Prospects Deep' and unlock the weapon.
NOTE this will only unlock 1 weapon, if you require 4 then multiply the required materials below needed also by 4 etc.

I noticed you did not use the beam lasers at all...

I use them in-between taking out the hearts, to stay cool whilst wearing the shields down. But unfortunately, I had to edit those parts out to keep the video at a reasonable length.

You can see briefly at 6:35 where I got caught using them.
