Do you see any major flaws in designs of this fleet?
My first attempts were slightly different versions with like 40 % less speed and 40 % more guns but because our neighbours from adjacent system seem to move at 3600 km/s and are trigger happy with 10-power ASMs, I went rather for these faster but still quite armored designs.
So my requirements were something like: 3800 km/s, 30b km range, 3 years of maintenance, 1 year of deployment, 3 months full power, differentiated armament for all three types of beam PD settings. Reserve active sensor and possibly also basic passive ones on all ships. AFR under 100 %, 2 engines, 2+ fire controls, min 2x more MSP than Max repair. Sizes 4950 and 9950 for frigates and destroyers, respectively. Try to use the same parts whenever possible for easier prebuilding of ship parts.
