Same thing as with the biokinetic torpedo's:
Anti matter torpedo V is bettter than photon torpedo I, because the Anti matter torpedo has a fire rate of 1 whereas the photon torpedo has a fire rate of 2 (the bit longer range and 5 more dmg really doesnt compensate if you can fire it only half as many times in combat),

making these seperate families would also be nice.

As for the small portable spaceyard, the pirates definetly need those, otherwise they cannot cap and analyse ships. I'm playing a game now and the closest enemy is 5 systems away, if I had to send a ship back it would be years before I could analyse it. and the 300 kt construction capacity of the small spacedock is enough to make a small recon sat or a few troops to cap a freshly inhabited planet.
