Guidance. You get guided munitions to deal with smaller ships, much like the MI Longhead gets guided torps to deal with the likes of you 
As I learned about SABOTs after beta went down, I have to ask. Do they fire 1 per salvo like standard torp mounts? or do they fire spreads of 4-5 rockets? Because I can deal with the lack of ammo if they fire multiple rockets per salvo per mount.

they fire 6, but the chance of more than one hitting anything smaller than a crusier at any range less than 300 is low

Sabot are NOT guided, they fire a spread of 6 rockets which individually do pretty low damage and it's only if most of them hit that it hurts, they have no splash and very low ammo and are for use against Dreadnoughts and Stations. UGTO has the ion torpedo, which is the only torpedo that's guided.

It looks like chitin has been removed, was that intentional?

Removed? Are you sure it hasn't been put as a replacement for Organic armor?
edit: seems to work here... o_O
Are you sure the planet had METALS?

The planet attacked me while my signature was negative in beta!
To make sure I was not desynced, I cloaked, stood still, then decloaked and checked again. My profobics had 2 ECM on so its signature was negative and the planet (which didn't have any sensor) shot me again. I was pretty sure the ship was damage because all arcs was red. Planet didn't shot me when I was cloaking.
I know beta server has a long response as I can update to cortex without techonology drop during built. But this is weird.

im curious about the new luth-torpedoes:
in devlog, its said, theyll deal less damage than the normal ones... what if all 3 hit, is the damage still less, equal or higher than the normal ones ?

The legendary icon in planet view does not appear.

I think if all 3 hit, it does 225% of the damage of a single torp.
It's mostly, from what I can tell, a hit and fade weapon that would be best used on destroyers.
It lacks DPS, so wouldn't be too useful on a base assault unless you plan on immediately cloaking after you fire your torpedoes.

my questions aim was:
a mandi have how many torps? 4 or 5 per side if you replace all of them woth the new torpedoes, that would be 30 bullets flying towards the enemy...

does this include the changes to the jumpdrive mentioned on the suggestion-page (and more importantly my suggestion to give stations jump & wormhole-drives  )

Fattie, are you planning to make Chitinous Armor alternative to Organic Armor? There is no reason to swap AHR - which repairs 8 Organic Armor - for a full arc armor for Luth.
