This can be added to any shipclass, so it should not be problem to add it anywhere.

Well, what's the default value for this ability for the Mechanoid Angelwing in vanilla Nexus? 

Furthermore, how is the percentage value calculated?  Is it "add percentage of hull damage removed by anti-hull weapons to the ship's support energy pool?" A capital ship's maximum hull integrity never increases throughout the course of the vanilla game, but its maximum support energy capacity can increase by installing  better batteries on the ship, so if this system were used, better batteries would get more power with every hull hit.

Lt.Brandon:
While I remember that the angelwing is supposed to gain power every time it's hit, it doesn't have the absorb value so if it does have that ability it must be hardcoded. I did see that the angel-mechanoid that you gain later in the game had the absorb value so it might be related to that being hit.
