In order to use fighters you need to train {{sk|Fighters|icon=yes}} (5% damage bonus per level). There are 3 types of fighters: Light (Anti-Subcapital), Heavy (Anti-Capital), and Support (EWAR). Each has a Tech 1 and Tech 2 variant. Light fighters and heavy fighters are further split between the roles they perform. Each type of fighter has a squadron size that determines how many individual fighters make up a squadron, and each carrier or supercarrier is limited by how many launch tubes exist for squadrons. A squadron of fighters is controlled and targeted as a single entity in space, and will generate a Killmail if the last fighter in a squadron is destroyed. Fighters are a lot larger, in volume, than drones. The skill {{sk|Fighter Hangar Management|icon=~~yes~~}} increases fighter hangar size by 5% per level.

All fighters are capable of warping, and will pursue a target into warp - the only escape from fighters is to jump system or to dock.
