To many pilots, [[Ship-Launched Fighters\|Ship Launched Fighters]] (or SLFs) are more of a bother than they are a benefit. Especially due to their extremely lackluster durability, they require a fair amount of skill and experience to get any value from them, and are typically seen as 'niche', and something that is more often fiddled with by experienced players looking for new and entertaining gameplay.
