This is just one section but from watching the show it looks like the gun's were placed close the the launch tube exit's. Of course they could be placed virtually anywhere along the landing bays.

I know that you did not design it that way but, to me, it doesn't make sense have the gun turrets in line with the launch tube exit portals.

Reason? The guns couldn't be fired when Vipers were launching, without risking a Viper being destroyed by friendly fire.

Just my two cents but, if creative license were to be exercised, I'd use it to remove those particular gun turrets and locate them somewhere else, perhaps behind the launch tube exit portals.
