A space fighter is a small, versatile, and maneuverable spacecraft, primarily used for interception, interdiction, or space-superiority operations.
These ships are unable to enter slipspace by themselves, and need to be launched from planetary bases, orbiting space stations, or capital ships to conduct strike-operations against enemy warships, intercept fighters, and provide escort for warships and dropships. Their size varies from a few meters to well over 50 meters. Most known space fighters are spaceplanes, capable of operating in both atmospheric and exoatmospheric environments. Ships primarily designed to transport and maintain fighter-squadrons are commonly known as carriers.
