The first one is the expensive, high-power, high-survivability model; the second is a cheaper option for frontier systems. Oh, by the way, using The Oz's squadron rules and TL12, will SDBs be common, or will they be replaced by non-starship carriers and a few squadrons of gunboats/fighters?

There isn't any reason why SDBs (and other vessels, for that matter) couldn't be organized into some kind of "Squadron" like fighters. Maybe some variant of the conglomerate unit rules from MT?

Small SDBs are still useful, especially for customs patrol, anti-piracy work, search and rescue, etc. The kinds of jobs a fighter (or fighter squadron) just can't do well.

IMTU serious system defense is handled by large SDBs (using battleriders), swarms of fighters (100s, even 1,000s) and deep meson gun sites on the mainworld.
