To tack on another question:
Is there a hotkey for selecting each flight of fighters individually?

Haven't kept up on the carrier changes... Are the fighters actually able to hit sub-caps, or are they specifically for attacking caps?

Light fighters (used on carrier and supercarrier) can hit anything now. they have a bit of a difficulty hitting ridiculously fast interceptors with tonnes of speed mods and overheated MWD.
Heavy fighters (supercarriers only) The short range type cant really hit stuff smaller than a capital particularly well, completely misses on cruisers and below. The long range heavy fighter can hit frigs for a decent amount but doesent have any "special instapop ability" like light fighters. The "Luanch Bomb" ability of long range heavy fighters is useless as it does 500 damage at most, and roughly 200-300ish on an MWDing frig...

I deal over 2100DPS with my T2 fighters on either a nidh or thanny - DPS justified by the cost of each fighter unit (13m building cost for each unit - 3 squadrons of 9) and of the carrier itself. In case this is yet another stealth "nerf carriers plz" thread.

They can hit pretty much anything.

Easiest counter to carriers are griffins.
You are not jamming carriers but the fighters.
