IMO this depends entirely on how big engines you have. Using roughly
the same amount of Mass for weapons and armour+hull seems to work best
for sluggers, though ships with lots of single-shot weapons and ships
not intended to get anywhere near combat (carriers, tenders etc) can
skimp on hull strength to carry a bigger payload.
