AI attacks meaningless?

Yes. If you check the info for the missiles you will see that they can only target planets and ships. Thus if you run into fighters or satellites with them they will be unable to attack them. Always make sure to see what your weapons can hit and what they can't. Once lost a fleet of super powerful dreadnoughts with wave cannons to fighters due to not enough PD cannons (well 600 fighters on 11 dreadnoughts with 2 PD each). So once again. Always remember to check what targets your weapons can hit.
