I copied the victory conditions verbatim from Indy's web page.  Programmers
are lazy and love to cut-and-paste as much as possible.  Do you think I
typed that all by hand!!?!?!

FTJava has heavy, torpedo, attack, interceptor, and standard multi-role
fighter groups.  The orders section code tests on movement and intercept
conditions for fighters.  An interceptor group will engage any enemy fighter
group in range after a movement order and if they have the endurance.
They'll attack higher priority fighter groups first.
