lol....

I think you've failed to consider that a bulky ugly craft with lots of
antennas and other pointy pieces would be very handy when encountering • those
space monsters that live inside the asteroids and have the huge mouths • that
are disguised as caves.  All those pieces sticking out of the ship would
poke the monster in the sensitive areas of its gums and the roof of its
mouth.  And if that didn't stop it then the bulkiness would make it hard • for
the monster to swallow the craft.

What's the good of wings if you're sitting in the belly of the beast being
slowly dissolved by gastric juices?
