As the title implies really. Give your faction specific component suggestions or regular suggestions.
Mine is just faster hyperwarps in a new era. Got nothing specific really beyond that.

Name: Radiation Engine
Slot Size: Large (Engine)
Mass: Normal for size
Skill Pools: Unremarkable other than requiring/granting less Pilot and more Electronics
Speed: Very High
Agility: Very Low
Fuel/AU: Medium
RP/Range Change: 4
Safety Rating: 90% (110% in Radiation Storms)
Armor: None
Bonus: +25% Faster Move speed (stacks additively with Explorer trait)
Cost: +10% on top of most engines
Faction Restricted: Javat
Notes: This engine would feature in escaping dangerous areas quickly as well as finishing missions a bit faster. A bonus in radiation storms coupled with the travel speed make it ideal for mitigating those areas, even with few talents. Higher electronics helps there a little too. The cost and ultra-low agility are its primary weak points. It could probably use a better name.

Skill Pools: +1 Navigation, +1 Electronics, -1 Pilot compared to level 4 bridges (6 5 6 7)
Officers: 1
Armor Bonus: 1
Shield Bonus: 0
Jump cost: +7
Cost: +15% on Bridge 4s.
Special: +4% success rate to Spying Missions, +10% Intel gained from Spying
Faction Restriction: Rychart
Name: Scout Stealth Bridge
Slot Size: Large (Bridge)
Mass: 110 (+10 compared to normal scout bridges)
Skill Pools: +1 Navigation, +1 Electronics, -1 Pilot compared to level 4 scout bridges (6 4 6 6)
Officers: 3

Shield Bonus: 3
Jump cost: +10
Cost: +15% on Scout Bridge 4s.
Special: +4% success rate to Spying Missions, +10% Intel gained from Spying
Faction Restriction: Rychart
Notes: These bridges would only be available on small and medium sized ships in their two similar variants. They offer slightly better spying functionality in exchange for significant jump costs, up-front-price, mass penalty, and a trade on some skill pool items.

Name: Compact Sensor Array
Slot Size: Small
Mass: 25 (-25 compared to normal Sensor Arrays)
Skill Pools: +5 Electronics, +2 Navigation (Same as Sensor Array 2, 1 less of each compared to Sensor Array 4)
Accuracy Bonus: Matches Sensor Array 4
Cost: +5% On Sensor Array 4
Faction Restriction: Rychart
Notes: This is a way to squeeze a tiny bit more space into a hull once you've maxed out your dampeners. It comes at a skill pool cost and a little extra cost though.

It comes at a skill pool cost and a little extra cost though. The ultra-low mass could be a huge weakness. Component hit points is based on mass, so it would be destroyed by nearly any attack that hits it. |

Oh dang. I forgot about that. I don't know the exact math on those things.

Name: Smuggler's Hidden Cache
Slot Size: Small
Mass: 150 (+30 versus Cargo-Fuel Pod)
Skill Pools: +1 Ship Ops (matches Cargo-Fuel Pod)
Fuel Bonus: 0 (unlike Cargo-Fuel Pod)
Cargo Size: 5 (same as Cargo-Fuel Pod)
Cost: +200% on Cargo-Fuel Pod (triple)
Faction Restriction: Mok
Special: 50% chance of 5 units of illegal goods not being seized by MOs, Zealots, and Spies during surrender. No effect versus other ships.
Notes: Gives an opportunity to keep some small amount of Xeno goods or other illegal goods versus lawful ships. This comes at a price of gaining no fuel and having a high price as well as a faction restriction. It also costs significantly more mass.

Battlecruiser Electronics SuiteSize: Large Skill Pools: Big Electronics with a little Ship Ops Effect: Advanced sensor data modelling and jamming capabilities increases Accuracy, Defense, and gives a small bonus to Escape; +8% Shielding
There might be another variation of this, a Carrier Electronics Suite, that gives some kind of bonus for small craft fighters.

DerpDaHonk0AzureSoul from the Discord server suggested a probe that could reduce damage from meteor storms. I think it could be a cool medium or large component. To expand its utility, it could apply to reducing damage from Rad Storm, Ion Storm, and Xeno Spore rumors as well.

An idea for a special weapons locker could be a special grenadier's locker. It could have extra cost, be faction specific (maybe/which?) and would mirror an A5 locker but would have +3 Accuracy and +3-6 Damage on all grenade talents.
