New Photon Racks vs Old Photon Racks

As much as i like the newer photon rack the old ones looked really cool and it makes me sad to just have them vanish Do you have any plans for them in the future? If you answered no to that could you please make some, PLEASE.

Are the new photon racks better against ships than stations? It's just that I was trying to protect some mining expansion against a Fed opponent, I built a Klingon turret (Off 70 Def 80)  they built a phaser platform (Off 42 Def 60) [Completed at the same time] and the phaser platform easily destroyed the turret (Shield were zero and Hull was over 60%). Was it just badly matched?

Also, I kinda miss the noise of the old racks, nice and deep!

The new photon racks multi-target I think, so if there were other ships in the area the phaser platform would do better.

Remember to pay attention to passives - the HWP takes 23% increased damage from the Phaser Turret.
