It would also depend on your supply lines.  If you can't supply your
attack
fleet with new fighters as fast as they loose them, your carriers end up
virtually toothless after a couple of battles.	Lots of variables here,
but
any expendable ordinance based fleet (missiles or fighters) can't go too
far
away from its core worlds or you must have defended convoys of
freighters
for bring new ordinance to the front.
