This new AIC addition for (leaky) Armor will be inexpensive and with its very nature - random in protection. If you will for a moment, please imagine; two new components:
One with a load value of 1kt - this is the Small Bracer made of Titanium and applied to reinforce any narrow sections of the Ships bulkhead.
The other new component would be the main Bulkhead Brace with a load value of 5kt made also from the Titanium compositions and applied to reinforce the Ships bulkhead; with origins from and to be improved upon thru the Armor Tech areas. The Structure strengths has yet to be determined; however, do not expect them to be high.

Actually, they do need to be fairly high. They need to have at least twice as many hit points as the average "internal" components to start having any noticeable effect. Leaky armor works best when they have a lot more hit points than internals. They still leak a lot of damage through, but if they have about as many hit points as internals, they will do very little.
Also, keep in mind that Suicide Junkie, not myself, came up with the first leaky armor system for Babylon 5 Mod.
