Combat drives - any point?

[Xenephon]

I notice that Combat Drives add a very small amount to attack strength.  Is the any point to them apart from that?

Essentially, are they worth a ship slot?

Well, the small ships already have fast combat speed incorporated in the hull, so I guess it's good for larger ships, if you want to fire or board first during combat.

At this point they don't do much. But I like having them anyways.
