You spend a mere 20 OP and get 2 fighter bays without the downsides of a normal converted hangar. If your build isn't of taking advantage of that then you messed up. Might as well just give us the 2 hangars and take 20 OP off the ship, then it would only need 3 built-in hullmods instead of 4.If you take a closer look at the ship, you'll see that almost everything on it has a higher than average value. Like you said, a Converted Hangar will add a lot to this ship for an average cost, and so will armour and hull boosting hullmods. And add every single large ballistic being cheaper by 10 OP you can see how the ship is built around that tight OP budget. I sincerely doubt you'll be able to comfortably mount 2 Xyphos wing unless you really give up something else.

Sometimes i feel like my brain has been hit by salamanders not gonna lie.
Only Heavy Armour gives you a flat bonus I think.
Hopefully, Heavy Armor will be updated to flat or percentage, whichever is greater, to accommodate Invictus. Current Heavy Armor would be no good for something with 10K armor.
Only Heavy Armour gives you a flat bonus I think. Armored weapon mounts gives a percentage, and so do Reinforced Bulkheads, Insulated Engine Assembly and Blast Doors (even though I never use the last two). Shield Shunt also fits in that group but since the ship doesn't have shields to begin with, it can't be installed.
