I'm not sure that's possible, but can check with Jon.

On the other hand...
- Flying faster than sensors is a dangerous game. You may have  
scouted the base, but unless you're keeping an eye on it, the  
opponent probably knows you've seen it and could move to reinforce. A  
Boom & Zoom might be in for a nasty surprise...
- The attacking fleet has to find out where the base is.
- A ship (or fleet) going that fast will take some time to speed up  
and slow down, putting it out of other action for some time around  
its strike.
