Just a suggestion, but I recommend replacing all the hull blocks own your ships with 400mm and 600mm lightweight armor. It doesn't hurt you speed too much if you use the lightweight versions, and it drastically improves your survivability. I used to build my ships entirely out of hull, and although you can achieve some success with ships built that way, it is very difficult to have a competitive multiplayer vessel without armor.
