No, thank you!
<geek> Landing the shuttle is tricky business - which is why it's entirely
automated. In this picture...
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=588820
... you can see a black dish on the gray part just below the tailfin. This
generates the tractor field that draws the shuttle in (there's another on the
other side. They both hinge up & there's a few greebly bits underneath :-).
Below that (on the blue stripe) is a small gray dish. This guides the shuttle in
until the tractor can grab it. </geek>
And you are correct - no weapons of any kind. If a hostile BEM threatens, a
strategic withdrawl may be in order :-)
