This is a nice balance to an NI that that works on the high tech end.

This also sets up one of the primary modes of IF/NI skirmish. If the IF
has such an obvious weakness, the NI will take advantage of that at times and
places it feels have stategic importance. Most conflicts will involve NI
trying to bypass the main IF force to take out the tender, then jumping out.
