That about sums that up
Now for more details on the Orbital satellites.
Class - In-mod Name - In-mod Details

Anti-fighter - "UNSC Valkyrie Class Orbital Defense Turret" -
"Codenamed "Valkyrie", the top secret turret was designed by Dr Marcus, the lead scientist of the ONI SECTION-III Defense Network team. The Valkyrie is armed with 5 rapid fire autocannons, it is capable of targeting and destroying fighter and bombers from a long range. The turrets are normally deployed around critical orbital assets to prevent landing parties and strike teams from attacking. "

Anti-Capital - "Forerunner Anti-Flood Defense Turret " -
"Designed by the Forerunners in an attempt to prevent the spread of the flood. They were build to destroy infested ships of all sizes. They were also used to quarantine planets to prevent the spread of the parasite. A large number of them were discovered in storage a Instalation 00 "

Sheild - "Covenant Orbtial Sheild Platform" -
"With technology "borrowed" from the Forerunners, the Covenant designed this orbital defense shield satelite. It is primarily used in orbit around sensative locations that do not warrent a full fleet presence. It also allows for large numbers of fighters and dropships to be stationed in orbit incase of incursion by the UNSC "

So there u have it

Looks really good, am looking forward to it.
Just a curiosity though, why not let the Station fire a MAC round? The ZC station could in vanilla FoC, so coding it in as a SW could be possible, and it would be a nice late-game upgrade for the HALO faction, especially since they (humans) don't have shields.

In fact, later it might be a good idea to add "super" weapons to all sides in the mod. I'm sure every Sci-Fi universe has some kind of uber weapon that can be used. Maybe this could be something to add for the next release after this one.
