Unlike the [[Dal'Yth Configurated Il'Fannor-class Light Cruiser|Dal'Yth of the Tau Merchant Light Cruisers]], the Dal'Yth of the Protector Light Cruisers is a carrier-cruiser with 2 launch bays to launch [[Barracuda]] fighters and [[Manta]] bombers.

Moreover, when you have a set of [[Dakka|8 coaxial guns,]] as you do with the Dal'Yth, they come in 2 equal sets mounted on each side of the craft, 4 on the left, 4 on the right. Each set of guns can fire in the 90° front arc and their own 90° side arc. This means the 4 left guns can fire either forward or to the left and the right guns can fire to the front or to the right. Furthermore, it has 2 Gravitic Hooks for you to transport [[Warden-class Gunship|Wardens]] to <s>catch the bullet</s> apply [[Dakka|even more firepower.]]

This gives the Tau Protector ships with coaxial guns the ability to either focus all their damage on a single target when facing forward or split their damage in half to circle the target and fire broadsides to help it still deal damage while manoeuvring. This makes the Tau fleet incredibly versatile when it comes to applying damage at the range you want, on the target you want.

It is armed with 2 Launch Bays carrying [[Barracuda]]s, [[Orca|Orca Dropship]]s and [[Manta]]s, 2 Gravitic Hooks carrying [[Kir'la-class Carrier Escort]]s and [[Kir'shasvre-class Frigate]]s and 8 Double-Barrel [[Heavy Starship Railgun]] Coaxials.
