I counter with:

Green Squadron	 : no double damage on a 6, or rerolls.
	       
Old fighters	 : Lower thrust to 10 (Fast fighters equal 15)
		   (Or 80% of value used.)

Obsolete weapons : Against fighters - Enemy has additional screen/heavy
rate.
		   Against ships    - No double damage/rerolls

Obsolete sensors : Second move range halved.

Obsolete Technology: must move as a ship until the fighter ends within
		     3 inches of the target ship.   The fighter may then
move 
		     to the ship and attack, but retains the speed and 
		     heading it had prior to the attack.

Comments?

Bye for now,
