The little monitors always dropped the shining turrets but the large ones never dropped guns to my knowledge in vanilla. Those major caliber turrets have to be a star rover thing because I have played with the fleet, mothership and missile mods installed several times and never had them drop.
For a point of reference, I installed one of each on the silver arrow that is buyable under the "other" mothership menu and are huge on the ship. They do not fire on fighters but they did fire on a butcher and I assume they work like major caliber cannons in that they only target capital ships.
My guess is they are installed on similar asteroid monitors that Star Rover added to the game and they just used the Hesphestus ones as a template.
Np on the save. I have taken to making hard saves at several points in case you need them so just ask.
