I got 3 of them from the berserker carrier, the one guarding the precursor portal, they do seem operational, although they "may" work in fights by themselves, however with their minimal range not really worth it, you might want to consider working on those turrets since it would make tactical fights less reliant on the mother ship, at least in the early-mid stages of the game when money is scarce and pilots are not worth using.
On a side note, XT-24 causes crashing...
I appreciate the credits
