    I have seen this on some Shadowhawks I've encountered ingame, though i prefer the Kintaro for LRM builds just to have bigger volleys. Try a single LLas for more Range Power:

    I agree with Blagg. If you're going to mount 1 energy weapon, make it a Large Laser or a PPC.

    To go in a slightly different direction...

    I've been toying with the idea of mixing streaks with LRMs/SRMs to make use of that head missile hardpoint while running Artemis. Which in this case, gives you something like this:



    You should get much better use out of the LRMs, and you've got a decent close defense combo of MPLas + SSRM + 3 MG. Having BAP is doubly useful for extending your spotting range and getting the most out of the SSRMs.

    I've taken to tying streaks to MGs to simplify weapon grouping since they have pretty much the same range. When holding down the trigger, the streaks fire as soon as you get a lock. Otherwise, you can tap the button to fire them and you only potentially waste 3 rounds of MG ammo.

    I increased the engine to use up the leftover tonnage (really no point in an extra heat sink here), but you could go in the other direction - drop the engine slightly and run a LLaser instead of the MPLaser.
