Fighters are frigate-sized drones that do cruiser-sized damage and can only be fielded by [[Capital_Ship#Carriers|carriers]] and [[Capital_Ship#Supercarriers|supercarriers]]. They are capable of warping, and will pursue a target into warp - the only escape from fighters is to jump system or to dock<ref>[http://wiki.eveonline.com/wiki/Item_Database:Drones:Combat_Drones:Fighters Fighters, EveOnline Wiki]</ref>. They need the same amount of bandwidth as heavy drones (25 Mbit/s), but compared to them, fighters are a little faster, do a little more damage, and are much tougher.

They need the same amount of bandwidth as heavy drones (25 Mbit/s) but a lot more space in the drone bay (5000&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup>); compared to them, fighters are a little faster, do a little more damage, and are much tougher.  


Each race has each its own fighter, and their damage is split between the race's primary and secondary damage types, but otherwise they are very similar to each other. There are only Tech 1 fighters (no Tech 2 or Faction variants). In order to use fighters you need to train {{sk|Fighters|icon=yes}} (which also improves the damage of your fighters).
