I think the 1 fighter bay on the UGTO Command Dread should be switched to a pcm missile as the 1 fighter is a joke and the ship is a bombing ship after all.

Command class ships (Command Dread (UGTO), Command Carrier (ICC), Ganglia (K'Luth)) will become what are known as "hybrid" ships. These combine aspecs of carriers, bombers, and combat ships.
Note: They do NOT have any sort of build or supply bay.
The Command Carrier leans more towards the carrier part of the mix, and the Ganglia leans more towards the combat part of the equasion. Command Dreads (UGTO) are sort of balanced.

while I think it's silly to have a bomber that can reload itself, the ICC command carrier has been extremely useful as a support ship in the gap between supply ships and stations... will there be anything to fill that gap?

Supply ships supply.
Engineer ships build.
Stations do both.
Period.

We need Bigger supply ships that can actually fix 2 Ships at the same time.
Like A Sup with 2 Drone bays in each direction.
It would be able to function as a support platform thingie and Sup 4 ships at the same time...

Ahhh, but here is the point behind the point...
A bombing ship resupplying itself is rather disruptive to the balance of the game. If a ship has insufficient bombs to do it's job, then perhaps the more prudent task would be to address the bomb component itself, no?
