You could chuck in a Splinter Cannon for an extra couple of shots but that is only 18" range if the Raider moves.
Wonderful things, gunboats.
Ironically, although theoretically it increases the potential damage of the unit, the splinter cannon actually decreases the points efficiency of the unit - you pay over the odds for that extra potential, which as the Count noted, is more limited in range if the vehicle moves than the normal splinter rifles.
My advice - if you want splinter cannons, put them on venoms. If you're taking gunboats (I like them, Thor doesn't...) then don't bother upgrading the weapons.
