The ICC/K'luth/UGTO recognition diagrams are amazing. Can't believe I haven't seen them before!

I just noticed something, though: The ICC stations are freaking huge.
UGTO station: 3300m diamater, 4600m height
ICC station: 4500m diameter, 5800m height
K'luth station: 3600m diameter, 3200 height (though drawn to be bigger?)
I don't fly stations, but doesn't that make the ICC station a lot easier to hit? "Easy" being relative to shooting a station.

i believe this is lore only, ingame they are same size i think,
most of the icc station is under the armor ring plane, kinda looks submerged

stations maybe the first targeted ( other than a indirector) because they are good pres gain ( to me) but the pilots can get alot of diffrent types of pres at once for instance
UTGO support station
3 supply drones
fighters reworked into bombers
filled up with heavy inf
and a few lingering dreads nearby
next to a planet, bomb the planet with fighters, repairing nearby allies (and yourself) and shooting the dreads will give you all bombing, supply, planet and ship damage

Ship sized were changed over the years and are in the process of being brought back to the sizes in the charts.
Or so I believe.
