The Light Corvette (commonly known as the LC) is a ship equipped with 2 flak cannons at its beam, and two heavy laser cannons. Its primary role is to destroy lightcraft. However, the Light Corvette can easily hold its own during sieges, but cannot reliably defeat Heavy Corvettes.
Strategy
The Light Corvette should be used to destroy lightcraft. It is not a viable ship to siege with because of its large flak spread, nor to combat other midships or larger. Such as the Attacker and the Heavy Corvette.
It is a terrible ship to use if you're not skilled with the Light Corvette. Even if you are skilled at piloting it, its only a second-rate ship. The Heavy Corvette is a far better option, with it only being 300 RU costlier.
