So, uh, can commercial vessels execute jumps with a military drive, tonnage permitting? Or is it useless to have civilian jump tenders with military jump drives, regardless of the lack of reclassification?

Military drives don't make a ship military, and that would be good for a reliable, civilian tender. However, she would be useless as a fleet vessel if, after supporting the warships' jump, she couldn't jump herself. The design screen doesn't show more than one type of jump drive on the 'sheet', so I'm guessing installing two different types of drives on a single ship is unnecessary/pointless.
