Notably, unlike the other Colonial ships, Jupiters do have access to six Battlestar Artillery turrets on its belly, allowing it to perform reasonably well against all targets regardless of where they are. | Notably, unlike the other Colonial ships, Jupiters do have access to six Battlestar Artillery turrets on its belly, allowing it to perform reasonably well against all targets regardless of where they are. | ||
Battlestars like the Jupiter have access to the '''Flak''' special ability. When used, this creates a bubble of explosive shells to either the left or right of the ship, damaging any squadrons entering its field of effect and intercepting missiles and torpedoes. However, careless use of Flak not only damages your own craft, but also will shoot down your own missiles. | Battlestars like the Jupiter have access to the '''Flak''' special ability.

The Jupiter can create the largest flak bubble out of the battlestars, making it adept at protecting other ships behind and around it. | ||
The effectiveness of flak is determined by the Armoury subsystem, and cannot be used if the Armoury is offline. Flak also deals extremely light damage to capital ships that enter its range. While battlestars should not use flak as a primary weapon to damage enemies, keep the light damage in mind if you try to retreat a critically damaged friendly vessel into a flak screen to scrape fighters off of it. | The effectiveness of flak is determined by the Armoury subsystem, and cannot be used if the Armoury is offline.
