I want to know which of those three species I should team up with compared to my ship, a fully loaded UE Cruiser. It's only secondary weapon, besdies being built-in, is a crescant fighter bay....
The igadraza are strong, the azdgari are fast, and the Zidagar make really good operas.... Who should I go with????

Probably the Igadzra. But maybe the Zidagar if you change your mind about secondaries.
The Azdgari offer shield generators, which will not make a noticable
difference in a big ship like the Cruiser. The also offer the Azdgari
upgrade, though, which I admit would be very nice for your ship.
The Zidagar offer the phased disruption beam, which you probably won't
want because you'll have to trade away a turret or two for it, and your
ship turns too slow to aim it well anyway. And then there's the fuel issue.
The also offer the systems upgrade, which probably isn't a very big deal
on your ship (especially since you don't use secondaries) and a minor ECM
improvement.
The Igazdra have the plasma siphon and SAEs. SAEs suck, but... The shiphon
would make a good addition to your ship. It won't cost you any gun slots
and you don't use another secondary, so there's no real opportunity cost.
And with it, you have a little extra firepower.
In a nutshell, the strands have the following things to offer your cruiser.
Adzgari: faster turning
Zidagar: 20 more tons of space
Igadzra: more firepower
