You get a ton of fleets that can never land on eachother.
But, with targetting like it is atm, it seems nearly impossible to change this.
You could fix it with raising armor eff values, but then you probably get some complaints about it being crazy defensive stats.
It's a bit of a shame tho, if you could let ships fire at their own shipclass, it gives you a lot more freedom in designing and balancing like you're showing here.

Politics and sucsess of stats go hand in hand, denying this would be utter lunacy.
Politics partly dictates how the round and stats play out, some stats reach their "potentiability of fun" depending on how politics plays out.
Stats that makes ship fire within the same class makes round with two strong alliance wich is battling each other for #1 very interesting, as when your opposition takes more losses than you brings you closer to #1.
Instead of worrying abouth #3, #4 or #5 overtaking you actualy do some killing and destroying to attain your goal
