This is a suggested addition to FT for those of you who like a little
more "Oomph" in your fighter groups...

Disposable Submunition packs for Fighters.
Cost=2 per fighter

These packs may be added to Standard and Heavy fighters and consist of
short range Hunting antiship missiles. They have a 6" range and function
as a submunition pack with 1 die rolled per fighter in the attacking
squadron. a 1-3 misses, 4-5 scores 1 point, and a 6 scores two points.
Shields have no effect. As long as the fighters are armed with Sub Packs
they are considered laden and dogfight with other fighters as if they
were attack fighters. At the beginning of any dogfight, a squadron may
choose to jettison it's Submunitions, losing them for the remainder of
the battle. If the squadron jettisons it is considered a fighter of it's
basic type as normal.

This will give a slight edge to fighter squads attacking shielded
targets.
