Thanks Dancer. Looking at a testbed I have the following:

DD -
AlphaDrive8
MJ
Capacitor
3xMiniGun
Move = 1.75
Armor = 200dp

Cost = 99
Ir = 30kT
Br = 53kT
Gr = 19kT

FF -
AlphaDrive8
2xCrobySharmor
3xMiniGun
Move = 1.5
Armor = 175
Shield = 168 (RS)

Cost = 100
Ir = 33kT
Br = 53kT
Gr = 15kT

So the FF is more robust, but slower and not as powerful without the Capacitor. The cost is essentially a wash, though the 3 less Gr for the FF might make a difference in how many one could build a turn.

So I still wonder, is the .25 more speed and the Capacitor make the DD a better ship?
