How to balance freighters:
Add two low slots
knock 55% off the capacity (or so).
increase the max velocity by about 20%.
Knock the structure down by 30% or so.
Give it
CPU 70
PG 2
Means people can pick between tank, align time and cargo space.

With no need to align, and nothing able to point with a Scram at 100km from gate (or even 85km from a gate), it's just jump gate, MJD, align, warp away. You just made an invulnerable blockade runner.
Well, other than the 10 second (or whatever) spool up time. And the tiny problem of actually fitting it to the ship, that has to be a battleship.
Get a disruptor in place, and they're screwed.
And have you seen T3s with interdiction nullifiers? Totally immune to bubbles

Everything will be getting close looks. There's some stuff we know we want to change with freighters and that list may get added to, although I can't promise module fitting. Five bucks says this means you plan to nerf freighter ganking.
I've got an idea how they should do it.
sure, you could fit a DCII and bulkheads, but that'll slow you down more, and need you to be ATK.
How many people would just fit 2 EC2's (to get the current capacity with how I'd do it). Or 2 nanos/istabs to get into warp faster?

They'll need to seriously rebalance the shield/armor/hull hitpoints amounts, if they plan to add module slots. With the current values just the T2 DC would double their tank.

Drop capacity to 62% of current or so
Drop the number of structure points to 70% or so.
Increase base speed to 125% or so.
CPU 70
PG 2
2 low slots.
Yes, you can make it harder to gank. But you drop the capacity to do so.
I'd pretty much ignore shields and armour values. They're pretty negligible in comparison to structure.

Salvage only. better pack a tractor beam

Just something to note. logging off at a safe isn't a great idea when you have people skilled at probing.
Especially as you'll be hanging in space for 15 minutes

Especially as you'll be hanging in space for 15 minutes Just a note for you. Not need to wait 15 minutes without global flag. Obvious thing when need to wait 15 minutes to log off. Jump safe to safe check scanner and probers wont be catch any ship and when global flag is end, you can log off. And you wont be hanging in space 15 minute time long, just 1 minute.
This would be after you jump into a gate camp, get shot/warp disrupted while running up your MJD (It's several seconds to go live), and pick up a 15 minute PvP flag.
Sure, you can bounce round safes till it expires, but it's somewhat more involved than just mjd, warp, log off.
