"4) PDAF/ADAFs should be able to target any fighter/missile in range.

ADAFs already do this."

Incorrect. ADAFs may only attack fighters/missiles that are attacking
the ship
on which they are mounted or friendly ships within 6". This means that
fighter
group that is 2" away (in range even for a PDAF) and attacks a friendly
ship
that is 7" away, the ADAF on your ship may NOT fire at the fighters!
Also if the
fighter group does not attack anything, it cannot be targeted.

Page 17 FT:
"There are two types of Anti-Fighter (AF) systems:	POINT DEFENCE
and AREA
DEFENCE. A POINT DEFENCE AF system is only capable of engaging Fighters
that are
actually attacking the ship equipped with the system - it is purely a
self-defence weapon. An AREA DEFENCE AF system, on the other hand, may
engate
ANY Fighter Group that is within a 6" range of the carring ship, OR that
is
ATTACKING any friendly ship within 6" of the ADAF carring ship."
