How about adding some (NPC only for obvious reasons) ships that basically operate in-system only? The basic idea is that a ship without hyperdrive and without as much fuel (since it won't be travelling to other stars) could use the saved weight and space for more combat oriented purposes, allowing them to theoretically be superior to full out starships of the same class. Seems like they might especially see use for places that can't easily produce or aquire FTL components, but still need to worry about being attacked, or for factions with a lot of territory, but not quite enough ships to cover all of it well.
