The reference fleet in this mission is puny, which causes a huge issue on this level much more than others. With a decent (not max, just above average) sized fleet you may be looking at upward of 12 assault frigates; just waaaay too many
With these changes,
empty fleet produces 2 assaults
reference fleet produces 3 assaults
big fleet produces ~6 assaults
huge fleet can produce up to 9 assaults
also cryo health +10%, they are not this fragile in classic
in classic, there are always 4 frigates, and there are not enough RU to have a big fleet anyway
part of the problem is the high amount of RU in the campaign, I think this is a tackleable issue for the first 5-6 missions
