There used to be modules that did that, but only for carriers. They were removed when fighters were changed.

If you can get your hands on a Guardian-Vexor you can use 10, I think. However there are only a few in the game, less than 25 if I had to hazard a guess. I wouldn't be surprised if there were even fewer.

Get your hands on a guardian vexor (very rare, limited quantity ship). Other than that, no. Carriers used to have more than 5 fighters, but they were changed so one controls 5 wings of fighters.

Interesting but it's only a Vexor anyway, can't use higher than medium drones.

Hey another question, is there a way to stop warp disruption?

"Guardian-Vexor" is a joke response, because it's a collector item worth 12 figures.

You can mitigate it with Warp Core Stabilizers (one point per), but not prevent it if your enemy has enough warp disruptors/scramblers (points vary) to beat your total warp strength.

Yes if you have a carrier, but it only allows you one more drone.

Guardian-Vexor is worth probably the price equivalent to your house.

Your ship has Warp Strength 1. Warp Disruptor removes 1 Warp Strength, Warp Scrambler removes 2 Warp Strengths. Warp Core Stabilizer (WCS) adds 1 Warp Strength. So to protect yourself from 1 warp disruptor you need 1x WCS, if you anticipate let's say 2x Warp Scrambler, you need 4x WCS.

Bubbles (like the one you've been at the beginning of the tutorial) and Heavy Interdictor's infinite points cannot be avoided with WCS.
