One more question: what does the "Drop Troops" ability do?
Nothing. Like Palace, Star - Unstable, and several others, it is 100% non-functional. Such abilities can be handy as extra AI Tags and to add more bullet points in the description of the component. A very common use is to use a non-functional ability to add a tag mentioning any to hit bonus/penalty a weapon has, since this value is displayed nowhere in-game.

Check out SEIV Modding 101 for a complete listing of all abilities. Tells you what they do and which files they are useable in. Many facility abilities can be used as ship components, and vice versa.
