I'm building a relatively small (30 tons) shuttle inspired by the Condor Shuttle in GURPS Space Adventure “Raid on Sterling” for the 3rd Edition, made mostly for atmosphere flight and reaching low orbits. It has a weapon but mostly for fighting on the atmosphere and not for Space Combat.

Besides the whole RoF issue, I find that the power of the Spaceships weapons is too strong for the purpose of the weapon itself that is more to fight against lesser targets than other Spaceships. I want to put a Heavy Chaingun, 15mmCL from UT in it.

How should I do that? Give the Shuttle a Cargo space and then apply the cost of the Heavy Chaingun?
