Say... do you have to order your ships to "cloak" when the grav cloaking is built into the hull? "Sir, we're going to weigh 300 kT now!"

Weaker??? Sure, they cost tons of rads, but as long as the target doesn't have shields, they do twice the already impressive damage they do in the regular game! Just imagine what would happen if you paired them with shield depleters! (And in P&N PBW, shields come at level 2 of Physics, not level 1, so they're not as ubiquitous as you might think! )

Also, consider how much Buckytube Gel armor would be best... it takes up no space, so compare build time and maintenance to the expected increase in survival time.
Hint: Does wonders for units!
