I plugged that stuff you attached into a test game, and once I'd changed the BMPs to use the Terran destroyer and the xfile to use the battleship (since I don't have your model or layoutpics) it worked just fine for me.
Some issues:
- Odd firing arcs on the new cross-beam hardpoints. The slots say they're pointing back and to the left.
- Reversed costs. You can buy the ship for $50k, and sell it back to the same guy for $750k
- Insane regen. The crew breed faster than they choke in space, so you don't need lifesupport.

One of my main issues was trying to get the ship to look like the Fazrah Cruiser using the files already in the game.
the Odd firing arcs are probably the result of me copying and pasting incorrectly heh.
I noticed that the Hull slots I added myself don't work. Can't drag anything onto them.
The weird costs were to make sure i could buy the ship without having to do anything once i started a new game, didnt want to do anything to starting ships
the crew regen is my attempt to counter psychic weapons which scale up to extremely quick kills at the later levels, because ship crew size doesn't get any larger and there is nothing to resist psychic flailers...once you reach a high enough level in the game those things can kill most ships in a single hit.
with the weird cost of the ship i noticed something crazy. the game seems to be giving you the trade in value of the NEW ship that you just bought. say I have a terran destroyer worth 150k trade in. When I buy the Pacifica that you provided, the game gives me about 700k cash. It seems like the game adds the trade in value for the ship I am buying, then subtracts the cost of the new ship also. heh
