The police cutters still have the same weapons limit as they did in SotS1 where they were the same CP as destroyers, yet here in SotS2 they are 1 CE which is 3 times the CP they were in SotS1. So they either need to have their weapons load-out boosted by 3x so they are actually a cruiser equivalent or lower their CE to 1/3. Since we can't have a CE less than 1 I have an idea to make this work with their current load-outs.
Move the Police Cutter to the BR category and make a special BR slot just for Police. Then make a Police Station that's basically a BR satellite that can only carry 3 Police Cutters and only has light turrets on the satellite itself. Since this satellite can only carry cutters it has a CE of 1. Then just shift all the moral and piracy modifiers from the cutters to the police station so we keep the same level of bonuses.

Re: Improve Police Cutters
Some races can equip their Navy with BR allready.
Another station on top of the 5 different types is more micro for little to no gain (not talking about micromanaging BR, which is a pain in itself).
A full fledged naval lvl 5 can support 83 cutters. And you can stack them in any sector.
That are 166 missiles. and 83 to 166 PD mounts. Which would translate in a full fleet. Plus your own fleet.
This defenders advantage for core worlds is quite huge.
If you want "better defense" go for SDBs (tech is called stealth structures).
