	The relative inferiority of the smaller Terran beams to their Vasudan equivalents may be explained by them being physically smaller and easier to mount; Terran capital ships consistently mount '''more''' anti-warship beam weapons than their Vasudan (or indeed Shivan) equivalents.

	While the SGreen's stats pale in comparison to the [[SVas]] and [[SRed]], what makes the SGreen a rather decent weapon is that it can easily be equipped on a Fenris or Leviathan cruiser, without cutting corners in other areas. The Aeolus cruiser mounts ''two'' of these beams on top of having the best point-defense of any other ship in FS1 or FS2. By contrast, the only ship featuring the [[SVas]] is the Hatshepsut ''destroyer'' class, as a secondary armament. And while the damage output is small and the cooldown is long, its range is good and the beam itself is very accurate. This means that even cheap, small, old cruiser designs like the Leviathan can still be effective against both fighters and ships in a variety of situations.
