IF you use the 15 minute turn scale rather than the 7.5 minute/1000
km-per-mu or 2.5 minute/100 km-per-mu scales, yes (or the ~30 second/a
couple of km-per-mu EFSB scale <G>). The FT scale is by no means
fixed..

I suspect this'll become somewhat more common with the explicit rules
on fighter rearming and reorganisation in FB2.
