Say there is a smallish starship to support a small team of heroic

to mark the LZ. A shape appears in the sky. Rescue!
The look and feel is a Huey, or perhaps a Jolly Green Giant. But
how do I handle the door gunners?
* Silly question. Door gunners are so retro. The automated laser
point defense clusters as much neater.
* Two crewmembers (navigator and crew chief?) take manual control
of side-mounted laser clusters, but they stay completely inside.
* Door mounts firing through a forcelock.
* What else?

If it is not actually a helicopter, but some grav vehicle of some sort,
you don't have any rotors on top. That means you have space for gun
turrets there. I suppose it makes more seonse, to "remote" controll the
turret from a crew station in the main vehicle, then to have a gunner
stick his head there.
