You stand correct for all of your statements except for equipment characteristics: specifications of each given equipment cannot vary from ship to ship. i.e: maximum elevation rate of a 20mm Oerlikon gun in single mounting will not vary if it is fitted on a Liberty Ship rather than on Ark Royal

I you wanted to create a subtype of an existing equipment, you should clone it. But this is not yet possible for SH5 guns, because they are in GR2 format. When TDW will make possible the addition of new meshes/subsets to a Gr2 file, making the same gun to have different specs on different ships will be very easy
