B5 ship/fighter question

I know this sounds a bit vague but I remember on the list
seeing some stats for having fighters fitted to non-carrier 
ships and it was based on a B5 episode were the fighters 
were clamped onto the ship and they could be released in the
event of hostilities but cannot be retrieved.

does anybody have a clue on what I am talking about and
is there somebody who can pass on those stats :(
