At least add a MT, so the tank can move Combat Speed and shoot BCs and the RG. Target Lock next, so the BCs hit troops and the RG hits a tank.

Dispods before Flechettes every time.

Minor considerations:
1. Bonding the FW and PF teams.
2. The d'fish are weak on offense, as is. I load mine up with SMS, TA, MT, and DisPods. This eliminates the KPs of the drones, and increases the fire power of the 'fish making them more than an expensive transport. These upgrades might take up enough points to leave one FW without a ride.

Again, minor adjustments in how you like to play.
