Tim,

I took the 'official' ship examples from FT and compared them to the
average Mass of the same class in the FTFB, and came up with the
difference. With this difference I took the official KraVak  mass listed
in FTMT book and multiplied them by this difference, to come up with
this
current target mass. My original KraVak mass chart was just multiplying
the FTMT mass by 2, which made them to light.

Here is the differences from FT to FTFB:

Scout		     1.75
Corvette	     2.3 
Frigate 	     2.0
Destroyer	     2.2
Lt. Cruiser	     2.3
Escort Cruiser	     2.3
Hvy Cruiser	     2.5
BattleCruiser	     2.5
Battleship	     2.4
BDN		     2.5
SDN		     2.7
CVL		     2.1
CVA		     2.4
