Also, support ships in big fleets might be a good platform for regenerators.
If you only expect a few ships or fighters to slip past your main force, regenerators will be effective.
Another good place to put regenerators would be on truly massive ships, such as BattleMoons.
Those can be expected to survive the nessesary turns even in large fleet battles, especially if it has escort battleships
