Also, didn't they mention in the briefing that it was shielded to some extent so they would need to use photon torpedoes?
Ray Shielded. So, I would imagine, that beam/particle weapons would be ineffective. The shield would allow matter/exhaust to pass, but not a focused energy pulse.
Which if those ports were all over and used for maneuvering in 3 dimensions, would be a reasonable defense/design. Especially considering your point of a single fighter making it to the trench (past the main arms, the surface batteries, the picket ships and the interceptors) seemed very understandable.
