weapons platform?

What is the deal with a weapons platform? I could not dock with it, or even scan it. Any way to interact with it at all?
Thanks

Its a platform that fires weapons, I'm not sure if its automated or manned but I doubt they would let a Freelancer dock with a weapons platform.

It automatic, a human would nearly fit in, and those things have aim that is worse than that of a pilot, if you shoot while circle strafeing around it, it just ignores you, so it cant be manned.

You can interact with them by shooting them.

That's about it.

Yeah, I "interacted" in that way w/ a couple once, then about 15 fighters came to interact with me a little more Of course then my Sabre turned them all to space dust...

likewise...a few platforms tried to interact with my sabre. I had my sunslayer give them some advanced interaction before interacting with a batch of fighters with my extremely interactive gun layout. Then their loot interacted with my tractor beam, and my wallet interacted with the reward money. At which point I had interactions with the nearest trader.
