Large ships often lack the maneuverability to perform the 180 degree turns needed to come to a stop on short notice. For such massive vessels, a reverse thruster allows them to accelerate smoothly backwards, without needing to turn around.
Because a reverse thruster must be facing forwards, it must be installed in the weapon section of your ship instead of the engine section.
