Default Cargo Facilitys and Weapons Platforms

To build weapons platforms on a planets surface,you must build a cargo facility to provide the space...right ? Ok,if that's so..why don't enemy planets(who have surface weapons platforms) have them as facilitys. I see signifgant weapons platforms and no cargo facility? What am I not understanding ?

Not quite. Every planet has it's own cargo space. To get more cargo space (so you can put a lot more stuff on the planet) you can build cargo facilities.

Planets have a natural cargo capacity without Cargo Facilities(CFs.) This is filled by Troops, Weapons Platforms and Fighters initially. If CFs are built, it increases this capacity by a considerable volume.

IIRC a planet with atmosphere you can breath will have more cargo space than a domed planet.
