Space Fighters are useful, light combat vehicles. They're fairly easy to produce once you've acquired eludium and are good for exploration of hostile worlds.

Since the fighters are classified as vehicles and not spacecraft, they cannot be targeted by spacecraft weapon bays and weapon bases, only turrets, gun towers and troops will be able to attack them. This makes them ideal for invading cities.

Spacecraft begin to become practically impervious to fighters at armor level 3, unless the fighter/ordnance is also of higher quality. At equivalent levels the fighter should barely be able to scratch the armor, and armor level 4 at equivalent levels the fighter cannot damage the spacecraft.

Armor does not protect from some environments (Poison being one of them).

Max speed in atmosphere:

• ~250mph at 300 meters - 90% throttle (300mph safe limit)
• ~475mph at 1200 meters - 90% throttle (500 mph safe limit)

100% throttle is near instant death in atmosphere
