COMMENTS
The Frog2 planetoid ship is an attempt at designing a well defended vessel
that has some punch.  It is primarily intended as a system monitor, though
it does mount a jump drive (it does not have fuel for a jump, relying on
drop tanks for required fuel when mobility is required).  This is a slightly
different design philosophy than its predecessor (the Frog planetoid),
dropping the added armor, a bit, removing most redundant systems, and
changing the turret weaponry to straight missiles.  This change gives much
more room for stores and missiles, and allows the addition of a frozen watch.
