Surely I'm overstating things, but how on Raxxla do we not have a full-on hybrid human-guardian ship yet? We have all of the building blocks to make one, and even basic proof-of-concept in the form of Hybrid Fighters.

We have a good understanding of the Guardians' FTL tech, their shield tech, weapons tech, communication systems, and what we don't have yet, we have dozens, if not hundreds of blueprints all over the galaxy from which we can fill in the gaps. With the bubble burning under the baleful gaze of flower power, surely such research would take top priority?

I would, once the long period of big patching is finished, love to have one if not multiple fully hybrid ships, if not at least Guardian-retrofitted variants of pre-existing ships. For example on the latter, Guardian-tech retrofitted;

-Gauss-Boosted FDL (reduced power requirement for gauss cannons as a purpose built guardian-tech, frontline anti-xeno combat vessel)

-Extreme Distance Recon Diamondback (further enhancing jump range and a bonus against Thargoid detection)

-Fighter-Augmenting Keelback (AKA using fighters as a primary weapon with related bonuses)

This isn't to say the Lakon C-Series ships are inadequate or don't have a future, but it would be nice, especially from the nearing doomsday scenario we are in, for truly radical adoption of Guardian technology to be ushered in.
