Hey /k/, what did you all think of the depiction of space warfare in The Expanse? Good or bad? Personally I think the CIWS would have been supplemented by lasers and interceptor missiles but other than that seemed good to me.

The fact that it was heavily missile based and takes great distances is always welcome compared to Star Wars/Trekshit of visual range engagements.

Agreed, better than others. Space is uuuge, advanced weapons systems like that shit would probably engage at distances at the edge or beyond visual range. I liked that it wasn't PEW PEW PEW lazarz too.

I never understood the CIWS, the flame that comes out the back of them. Is that supposed to be some kind of heat dumping?
Needs more ELECTRONIC WARFARE

Also that a single hit would seriously fuck even the largest of ships.
And that capital ships were hauling ass around at 8+ G.
>>29800559
It was a nice change in pace from the usual.

The design of that sailing ship was orgasmic.
Too bad that the later episodes were snore as fuck.

Recoilless CIWS.
