Two points of armor for every seven points of hull works nicely against
K-3's
(which do the most damage per unit mass, per hit).  While K-6's are a
noticeably
less efficient than K-3's, they make it pointless to have more than one
point of
armor for every ten points of hull; unlesss, you can mount more than one
layer
(the Kra'Vak heavy ships are obviously optimised to deal with Phalon
heavy ships).

If you know that you are only going to deal with smaller ships (K-1's
and -2's),
