I added a few small manga updates to the advanced weapon systems.

Fighter planes:
Transformer (arms manufacturing 60 000)
This plane can transform into a human like Mecha for no apparent reason. Note: Unless the plane is VTOL or have an antimatter engine, it can't fly in this shape and the transformation takes 5 seconds meaning that if you jump of a cliff and transform you better make sure it is a deep cliff.
The Jesians call this system "Gundam" whatever that mean. The mecha can still use autocannons and missiles, you can also buy a nano sword for it for 1 additional hardpoint.
6 Hard points

Surface combatants and submarines:
Holographic AI (IT 50 000)
This will add an AI to the ship that can handle most systems on board. It however lacks imagination and can't repair itself so it is not recommended that skip the crew but it is an excellent adviser and can take the ship to a friendly armor in an emergency without the crew.
The AI manifest itself as a 18-20 year old attractive person (often female for some reason) which confuses scientist a bit (Ooc: It is a manga thing). The hologram can appear anywhere on the ship but only at one place at a time.
Cost: 3 points

I admit I was bored. The first system is based on "Macross"/"Robotech" and the second on "Arpeggio of blue steel". I don't think either will create a balance problem. I have a feeling Jesia will like the first feature and Anacodia the second.
