Given the fact that ships as small as X-Wings and H-Valks can mount a Hyperdrive motivator, I dont see how the power demands are high enough that not mounting one would give you a significant power advantage. However, given the fact that, for example, the Star Kingdom of Manticore is out there, I'd expect that there IS a chance that at least some of the locals in her neighborhood still use LAC's.

I expect that If/when Gryph thinks about this one, he'll point out that the only navies who MIGHT build this sort of thing are the eqivalent of 3rd world worlds, who don't really have the umph to project power, just defend their own space... and or havent developed hyperdrive yet.
