It seems to me that fighters tend to be balanced
"in moderation." That is, the more you have, the
more it seems to be unbalancing. 6 squadrons
can make a lot of trouble for a regular ship
or even an ADFC fleet (who might collectively have
2-3 pds's for every squadron). Any technique that
puts huge numbers of fighters on the table tends
to squash the opposition unless he too has a 
specialized fleet (high air defense or large numbers
of fighters himself). This is just my opinion based
on the limited numbers of games I've played.
