I read that message but did not understand it. If you were
suggesting that a single fighter should somehow turn into six, that's
obviously nonsensical. If you were suggesting that a single fighter
can operate as a squadron, well, that's already the case (a weak
squadron to be sure, but they can still do squadly things). If you
were suggesting that reduced squadrons can be combined into more
complete squadrons, I don't think that's explicitly stated in the
rules but it makes sense. It doesn't convey a great advantage for
fighters.
In short I couldn't make heads or tails of that message and that's
probably why I don't understand this one. Please re-explain.
