    You can't get more than 8 weapons on a ship in Star Trek Online. But some have 8 divided differently, like mentioned some have 5 fore and 3 aft. Some have 4 fore and 4 aft.. Some have 3 fore and 5 aft..

    But no, you can never get more than 8. Unless you count the experimental weapon slot, but you can only fit a very limited number of weapons there.

    No ship with 8 weapon slots gets an experimental slot. They are on basically 4/3 and 5/2 escorts and 4/2 and 5/1 raiders.

    Oh, I see. I haven't played with ships that utilize the slot yet so I wasn't completely familiar with it.

    Have to agree with everyone. Cruiser wise you got 4/4 and 5/3 as options. No ship comes with more than 8 total.

    Would love a slow moving vessel with 10 weapon slots and a turret build though. Rainbow off course.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    you can go with a few carriers that give 7-8 weapon slots and 2 hangars. the T5U Jemmy carrier is still a favorite of mine especially now that i have a bug ship and got the bug hangars

    The 8 Weapon, 2 Carrier ships are some of the most expensive in the game however. The only ones I know of at T6 are the Universe Class, the Tzenkethi Tzen-Tar and the Discovery Flight Deck Cruiser which are all about 1.2 Billion EC each on the exchange.

    What ship as 3 fore weapons and 5 aft?

    Thank you! I'd never heard of that. I missed the last summer event. Wonder if there is any way to acquire that now? (Since I spend all my time running away, having more aft weapons is appealing to me!)

    No way to acquire it currently if you weren't around for that event to slot it, AFAIK. It might be added to the Phoenix Prize Pack eventually as an epic prize token, but that'd likely be pretty expensive.
