I'm not familiar with the Future armada vessels but isn't just one armor layer awfully thin for a combat spacecraft.
I use 2 layers at the minimum (Usually 3),
if the spaceship has a spinal battery than at least 3 or even 4 in the front.

Quite probably - however, these GURPS Spacecraft stats are built to match the designs, deckplans and notes for the vessels, and this particular ship has a lot of weapons, and there just isn't the space to put more armour on the ship.
The actual d20 stats with the Morningstar says it uses Vanadium Armour, which in d20 terms means the armour is 1/8th of the ships weight (round down); reading that as Mass (which is more sensible anyway), that's 20/8 = 2.5 Armour Systems, so 3 Armour Systems is actually an increase in Armour Mass over the given stats.

†The internal transport system uses special transit spheres, which in an emergency can be ejected from the station, acting as lifeboats for up to 10 people each for up to 50 hours.
As well as the T2 Transport System, the station has 24x Discus Lifeboats (11-person) primarily for use by high level government and corporate people.

The Station has 5x Fuel Tanks, holding 50,000 tons each of different fuels. One holds matter/antimatter fuel mix for the stations own AM Pion engine, one holds water as used by the stations own fighters and shuttles, the other 3 can hold whatever might be required by visiting vessels, likely Hydrogen in at least one.

For defence, there are 3x squadrons, each consisting of 48x Sparrowhawk Fighters (144 total), these are manned and flown by military pilots. The CEO has a personal shuttle, a Morgan XL, and the station also has several other small craft; some unmodified Morgan Shuttles (See FA06), Sherpa-class Cargo Movers (See FA13), and various small repair and maintenance ships and bots;

† The internal transport system uses special transit spheres, which in an emergency can be ejected from the ship, acting as lifeboats for up to 10 people each for up to 50 hours.
As well as the T2 Transport System, the ship has 12x Discus Lifeboats (11-person) on the Bridge levels.

The main Habitat onboard the Invictus consists of 2 rotating Habitat Rings, which due to their size, generate only 0.5G spin gravity.

The Invictus carries 200x Serena Fighters and 40x Brahma boarding shuttle, each vessel has its own launch tube (half on each side), and every third tube can be launched simultaneously. This gives a launch rate of 2400 tons which is slightly above the standard 2000 tons, but does not seem unreasonable.
