After small discussion and with little side blessing I decided to suggest remaking main Order bomber.
Currently, it is a medium bomber with enormously huge shape and 5 guns able to shoot forward with quite versatile parameters. Another motivator to begin rebalance is fact medium bombers are unpopular and most of faction players prefers civilian shipline, like Roc or Waran.
Kudos to one kind man who helped me with shape size comparison:

[1] | [2] | [3]
As you can see, Sekhmet looks very similar to Thor, that is heavy bomber and far larger than new Core bomber that is naturally a light bomber.

Besides, ship's mass center should be...in the center, of course. Let's see, where is it now and compare it to other ships.
Sekhmet
Thor
Bonnethead
Waran

Current and possible bomber's technical parameters:
[+]Current
Gun/Turrets Mount: 7/0
Base Armor: 21700
Cargo Space: 120
Power Output: 1880/45390
Batteries/Nanobots: 105/105
2xCD/T
1xCM
1xM
Fighter-class shield
Turn rate: 57.71
[+]Possible
Gun/Turrets Mount: 6/0
Base Armor: 23200
Cargo Space: 120
Power Output: 2350/47000
Batteries/Nanobots: 150/150
3xCD/T
1xCM
1xM
Freighter-class shield
Turn rate: 53.73
Conclusion: Nowadays Sekhmet is a bomber that doesn't know what to do. It's very easy to take a damage due to its size and doesn't cause large damage to heavy caps, because it should to choose between two kinds of torpedoes or CD+Torp. Waran basically replaced the native Order bomber to be a threat and suggestion tends to back Sekhmet's popularity. It still easy to get killed but, at least, bomber finally can do good damage to caps.
