Yeah, fighters have some good uses too, and are better in the ways you mention Alneyan, though not in all ways. Fighters and drones are good in different ways, and can be good used together, too. For example, several drones set to Max Range with range-5 weapon and strong shields and ECM, can soak up the enemy PD to protect fighters, as can other drone designs. Drones that launch seekers can also overwhelm PD. Drones that don't ram can be re-used. In one case, including about 100 drones in a fleet won me a major fleet battle and then also served to guard the fleet while it repaired after the battle.

Good points too, Baron.
