Combat dreads are only meant for long range, just wait till you hit assault dreads. They're beast.

CD has 4 armor, 4 shields like the MD dose. Both ships don't do close combat at all! If you are getting hit by an assault something, jump out, you will LOSE. If you are a good pilot you MIGHT be able to pull it off but its unlikely. CD is mid range and nothing more, just like its UGTO counterpart which also is supposed to suck in close combat. Yet the BD can do much better at CQ then the CD because Pcannons have a damage BONUS the closer you get.
A fix? Give the CD some torps and fix the missiles to Heavy Rail-guns for some better close combat. Also the IC need to be F/L/R.

Basically if a well piloted Assault/Torp cruiser jumps in on your six o'clock position and manages to stay there..... well..... almost any dread is screwed.
A cruiser is more manuevarable, and chances are, they pack a wallop too.
Get your teammates to assist. Or make a short jump out and turn around to pound him with your superior forward facing firepower.
