[GZG] FTversecolonies [SEC=PERSONAL]

Locally, the F-111 seems to be an example of this; its had a long
service life, but with the delays to the JSF, the previous government
were to buy another fighter as a stop-gap (with shorter range and lower
payload).

Relating back to FTverse; the intent to project military power (through FTL)
is going to impact "acceptable" costs. Transporting thousands of militia or a
few elite units is just logistics; replacing
casualties/ammo/equipment may be prohibitive with the travel times
required. The "effective" points cost we can PSB to include the logistical
costs of putting those forces on the front line (ie: you pay less up front,
but need more to be "comparable" to a more expensive force).
