Parasite Fighter Rack
[^]: symbol for Ex-rack squadron
30: Cost+fighter squadron
1:Space

A ship may mount 1 squadron of Parasite Racked fighters per 30 Mass of Carrier
ship.Since this squadron is carried externally, any damage caused to the
Carrier vessel will destroy the Parasite Racks. If the
Racks are hit with fighters still embarked, roll a D6-1 and that many
fighters manage to disengage from the racks and launch. Parasite racks MAY be
used on civilian transports. This was what they were developed for in order to
provide escorts for merchants in high risk areas. A parasite rack may launch
at any time IN ADDITION to any normal fighter bay launches. They must be
recovered within the normal constraints of fighter recovery. Only Standard,
Superiority or Heavy fighters may be Parasite Racked as the racks do not
provide support for specialized weapon systems.

fighter, if so what are their stats:)
