The '''Point Defence Turret''' is defensive [[Weapons|weapon]] equipment that can be mounted on the "utility mount". Once mounted, the Point Defence Turret will automatically shoot at  [[Missile Rack|missiles]], [[Torpedo Pylon|torpedos]] and [[Mine Launcher|mines]] for as long as it has power and ammunition. It also shoots any incoming [[Hatch Breaker Drone]]s. The Point Defence Turret does need line of sight to shoot at any valid target. Due to line of sight limitations on many ships, multiple Point Defence Turrets may be needed for full coverage or alternatively, erratic corkscrewing and rolling flight paths may be used to rotate on oncoming target into the turret's line of fire.
