Let them be six-arc weapons as usual for FB1, but have the arcs be Fore,
Aft, Stbd, Port, Dorsal, Ventral.

starts to "slide backwards", or what have you, it can drop too low and
crack.

Maintain a minimum speed or start sinking?

any system in FT akin to the modern wire-guided torpedo. Should "depth"
affect their range?

If depth affects speed, then yes, you're having to shove more mass aside
as
you move

I'm missing something here--you're saying fighters in an atmosphere
aren't
realistic?  Oh wait, you're one of those
aliens-pretending-to-be-Canadian,
