Idea for Admiral Ranks

I have had BattleCruisers come to assist me as an Admiral on one of my Alternate Xbox Accounts from time to time while in conflict with Thargoids and within Conflict Zones. I've see multiple Federal BattleCruisers in one Combat assisting Admirals and other Commanders in Heavy Conflict Zones.

But it would be nice if the Admiral has a Option to Board Federal Battle-cruisers to Restock, and anyone in their Squadron or Wing would also have that privilege amongst the ability to Purchase a Star Destroyer (New Ship Idea, bigger than Corvette, but can only restock in a Battlecruiser). - What you guys think ?

[Star Destroyer]
Twice the Size of a Corvette, Corvettes and other ships can dock within the Star Destroyer. The name star destroyer isn't named this to destroy stars, but is more of a Warship.

Right now we have:
  • Star Fighters
  • Combat Ships
  • Transports
  • Multi-Role Ships
  • Corvettes
  • Fleet Carriers

But we need Warships and Destroyers (That can be used by a Commander), It'd be about the same price as a Carrier, but can be flown, launch both other Commander Ships, Star Fighters and you can have a 5 man Crew (Pilot, 3 Gunners, Navigator & Engineer).
 
Admiral and King are throw-away titles, the reward for achieving them, Corvette and Cutter, don't even require the top ranks.

This is another evolutionary dead-end that has been discussed before with no action from FD.

As to your suggestion for battle cruiser changes, this is also another dead-end, as the Farragut/Majestic ships have displayed same characteristics for a long time. They can be countered easily, just pop the heat relays and they run away.

Doubtful FD will do anything with them anytime soon.
 
Good ideas. As we have weapons size - S, M, L, H , in the same manner we should have ships - Huge class ships. Federal Frigate (or Destroyer) for Admiral rank. Imperial Cruiser
for King. Our Fleet Carriers should have one H landing pad, instead of 8 large, would be 6 large and 1 huge. H class ships can not visit stations. Such ships can be 4 - 5 times more
expensive then Corvette and Cutter. Size 10 PP, PD etc. This ships can even dock S and M ships. I would like it.
But then, there is a problem - this ships are too powerful. Pirate Lords and Thargoid Interceptors would be easy targets.
 
Maybe Admiral and King could give you the option to call in a wing of Fed or Imp NPC navy to help you out..but limited use maybe? Like once every half hour or hour, whatever. Orders could be given same as npc slf?
 
Only problem i see with this is FDev will not do anything with it it's been brought several times over the last 5 years as so far nothing!.
