    The Solanae deflector comes with the Dyson ship from the lobi store
    It should fit on any science ship with a secondary deflector slot.

    Wells might be a decent comparison, though it's a lockbox ship, it tends to get second billing a lot of the time when people mention best Science Vessel.

    I'd hold off on that. The secondary deflector is not worth the cost. I'm sure secondary deflectors will be coming soon.

    It's only worth it if you plan on buying the Dyson bundle and running a ship with all three consoles. Even then it's not that stellar an idea to pick one up if you don;t already have one.

    So we're pretty much stuck with default secondary deflectors (are they kinda qualified fer an upgrade atleast?) til they decide to come up with additional secondary deflector options..? -_- a rather grim prospect...

    Tho fer now I am still leik halfway to the set I think... only gots leik 1600 zen from grinding...

    Yes, the Dyson Science Destroyers support secondary special deflectors, but they are currently the only ships that do.

    NO
    Secondary deflectors are different items than deflector dishes, and don't fit in the same slots.

    At the moment, Dyson ships and the T6 science vessels have slots for secondary deflectors but the only secondary deflectors are the one that came with the dyson and the free one that comes fitted to new ships
