A PDC is exactly like a ship, except for the following:

1) Immobile.  Once constructed (or assembled from pre-fabbed sections), it is stuck at that location forever.
2) Extra, free armor.
3) A few components, if designed as PDC-only, get a minor bonus (beam fire controls, missile launchers).

Thus, you treat them exactly like ships (including managing them using Task Groups).

In order to make that list more complete.

4) Are unable to mount a few components such as Shields and Engineering Spaces.
5) Ignore the maintainance clock.

Shows what I know.  I didn't know you couldn't mount shields on PDCs.
