Hi there, while I do really enjoy the overall concept of these stations, there are a few tweaks that need to be made in order for this to get approved.

• Tier III companies may produce military stations up to 2000m at the longest dimension. The Jast station exceeds these lengths in both height and width, so these will need to be edited down.
• The armament will thusly need to be reduced as well. The Golan II station you're using as a reference has a small fraction of the weaponry this does, with its only purpose being military functions rather than fueling and hospital work.
• I would also like the mobility and speed reduced even further. Most stations don't move whatsoever unless they've tugs to pull them back and forth. A station with a hyperdrive is essentially just a bulky warship.

Tag me when the edits are done. If you can think of any compromises that would balance this out, please feel free to suggest them. You to get your cool toy, and I just want it to be fair!
