The main problem I've seen with the ships have been mostly photon torpedo damage -- which on some ships seems about 2-3 points too high. The maneuver mods for the Savber were the only other glaring problem for me.
Actually, the Sov and Akira stats, in general, looked good -- the latter works fine, if it's not a 'carrier' in your game.
"War is an ugly thing but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feelings which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
John Stuart Mill
