				 Re: Fighters? 
 I believe fighters in cargo will launch themselves during combat.  At least they used to.

				 Re: Fighters? 
 Nodachi has come up with a nice drone tatic... Drone Ramming ships.. Very effective... if your planet is being blockaded by a ship set to do not get hurt

				 Re: Fighters? 
 Heavily armored Fighter ramming ships are good too. Takes care of those  pesky little Groups of fighters.. pretty darn well, kind of cheesy though..
 
 I still think that you should not be able to ram fighters and drones.
