Refit mounts that penetrate Hood's strength deck

A deck opening would require sufficient supporting structure around the mount.

Question

How would Hood's structure need to change if new mounts penetrated the strength deck?

Short answer

A deck opening would require sufficient supporting structure around the mount.

Notes

Penetrating the strength deck creates a structural problem for the refit. The suggested solution is to build a sufficient supporting basket around the mount. The requirement remains conditional on the selected mounting actually passing through that deck.
