DC had imagined the Spectre to be the larger of the two by a significant margin, thanks to the firepower difference and military design. What with the Spectre's large weapon count compared to the Firebird's...four.

The drop bays open straight down, but there are also side entrances there. So...both, basically.

Regardless, that little maneuver has proven to Drelin that this is not going to be as simple as he'd like it to be. The Spectre's underside firepower is now getting turned on the Firebird, this mostly consisting of several rapid-fire laser turrets and turbolaser cannons.

This seems to be getting serious now.
