Editing Fighter Factory (section)

== Function ==
'''Fighter Factories''' are [[installations]] that allow construction of [[fighter]]s, which are ships under 500 tons.  This frees up shipyards to produce the larger and more costly warships. Shipyards can still produce fighters, and (depending on tech levels) they can sometimes be faster and more efficient, but shipyards need to be retooled to produce a new class, whereas fighter factories can change over to a new design instantly. 

A fighter factory produces the racial fighter production rate per year modified by the [[Leaders|planetary]] and [[Leaders|sector governor's]] Factory Production bonus and require 50,000 civilians each to operate.

:Formula:  (Racial Fighter Production Rate) * (Sector Governor Factory Production Bonus * 0.25) * (Planetary Governor Production Bonus)
