Are the little fighter ships worth it for bounties? (lemmy.ml)

My question regards those little fighter hangars you get for bigger ships that can deploy small fighters, specifically on the krait mk2. I see the benefit for something like an Anaconda where you turn to the enemy for 90% of the time, but for the krait they have so little damage output that I dont see any benefit from just buying some hull reinforcements. Any suggestions?

The rank of the AI makes a huge difference, yeah. High skill AI crew can take down entire ships solo.

And if you aren't giving your crew commands, you should be doing that. IIRC you can tell them to attack specific targets, defend you, or just follow you around.

If they're set to just follow, they're not gonna do much.
