[QUOTE]Originally posted by J: [QB] I just felt the need to correct someone: Someone mentioned that ST has magic sensor tech and it makes fighters useless and then used the modern aircraft carrier as an example of the other situation. This was incorrect. Aircraft carriers have a little "magic" device called radar. It helps them detect incoming craft from from up to 300 [I think] miles. And let's not forget the "super magic" level of sonar... Fighters are not used to detect incoming threats, they are used to counter incoming threats faster than the capital ship can. This is the reason why SFC sends out patrol ships, instead of waiting for threats to come to the nearest Starbase. Ships send out fighter squads to counter incoming threats as the approach-- not when they get there. [/QB][/QUOTE]
