http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Frigg.

does a t3 frigg relate to the first or second definition?

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

well, considering that the destroyers didn't share a "type" with the previous t3, what would say that the frigates would?

A freighter that is re-purposed to be combat ready wouldn't be a freighter.
They also don't need MORE tank, they are effective enough in high sec as it is.

When backed against a wall, we show what monsters we really are.

You can already put fitted ships in a JF, use the courier contract trick.

or just use a carrier, which holds a lot more.

And we dn't need cruiser speed freighters, if you need to haul small things fast, use a BR. Big things fast, use a JF.

If your jump freighter gets tackled in 0.0 it is probably going to die unless you have a large escort gang. In which case, how did it get tackled? Your friends will either fight off the hostiles or not. EHP matters fairly little in this situation.

In short, your idea is a strawman. The only place jump freighters need 2x more EHP is in high security space - but the powers that be think this would be unbalanced. I tend to agree with them.

You could also use more than one ship for different steps of the journey. I tend to move fitted ships through empire by courier contract to the last high sec staging area, then use a jump freighter or jump them into low security space and use a carrier the rest of the way.

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

T3 tactical capital that can swap between freighter, carrier, and dreadnought modes. Just swap to carrier mode if you get ganked, and start tanking the damage while popping pirates. When the coast is clear, you can swap back to freighter mode and scoop up all the boxes that were jettisoned when your cargohold size shrunk.

Again the ship progression is not tech 1 < tech 2 < tech 3 < tech 4 < tech 5....

It is tech 1 < faction <= tech sleeper != tech 2 special snowflake < pirate faction.

Eve Minions is recruiting.

This is the law of ship progression!

T3 Freighter, yes definitely.

T3 Frigates, no, I won't like that for PvP. Maybe T3 Battlecruisers or Battleships
