Even better, orbital gauss cannon- Actually fuck it, let's just make a star destroyer or acclimator knockoff. THAT ought to soften their AA up a bit. :P

Fine, Fine I will go for a more reasonable design.

The Kraken
A captured earth giant squid, armored and strength enhanced with soldier technology and given a basic neural override interface, enough to make it desire to move and attack on command.  The tentacles are strong enough to punch through or crush the hulls of military vessels and it has been trained to see human ships as prey, filled with delicious humans and cargo containers full of produce.

...That leaves one question: How are we going to capture the damn thing, let alone find one to modify?

Hum-Zil Hybrid Occupation Soldiers

Human volunteers promised safety and income for their families in the new world order.  Armor grafts to the outer layer and implanted alterations to the vascular and skelto-muscular system brings their combat abilities in line with our standard soldiers while possessing many human traits, like long term survival in the Earth's atmosphere, a smaller profile and the ability to take up conventional human weapons.  Armed primarily with laser weapons, each is also equipped with a uniquely encrypted explosive implant at the base of their skull to ensure loyalty until death.

I don't think we can be nearly certain enough of their loyalty at this stage. We should work on say, improving the conditions of our occupied peoples, propaganda, etc. before creating volunteer troops, OR work in mind control in these implants.

Yeah, DH has a point. And honestly, it'd be more worthwhile to just ignore mind control for the most part.

I don't know man... Can you imagine the look on the other team's face if we mind control one of their general?

Wait what?  Who was talking about loyalty or mind control?  We have their families as hostages to their good behavior AND explosive implants in their spine.

Explosive implants massively increase the amount of needed expertise and resources needed to use them as cannon fodder.

Rather then arming our fighter with multiple weapon systems we should instead concentrate on one or two smaller ones with making it higher performance then the human one.  And armor.  0(literally hovering) to mach 3 in 60 seconds!

Maybe some sort of anti-missile system?

Nah, multiple weapons gives it a variety. We know they'd be superior to anything the humans can come up with unless they can nick something of ours.
