Awful card. Trading your focus or target lock for an additional attack die does only net better results if you start with less than 3 attack dice in the first place and for 2 starting dice it really nets you almost nothing, so basically it is only really netting you something when your base attack power is 1, at which point you have different problems in the first place.

2 ATK + Focus vs. 2 DEF is 0,85 expected damage, 3 ATK vs. 2 DEF is 0,90 expected damage. (Very slightly better)

3 ATK + Focus vs. 2 DEF is 1,53 expected damage, 4 ATK vs. 2 DEF is 1,33 expected damage. (Much worse)

This card only nets you something if you can get a focus/target lock in combination with the additional power, but since this is an elite pilot slot you will need Experimental Interface or something like Airen Cracken or "Dutch" Vander. And then the ship still loses an agility on defense, which is only no problem if you won't get shot at this turn or have 0 AGI anyway.

So yea. You pretty much have to build a squad around expose, and for these 4 points I rather take Opportunist or Predator (which is even 3) because they are passive and don't cost the valuable action.
