In Response To: Re: Just checked out the Essential Visual Guide (Bry) : Thinking about it logically, the Air Forces should actually still be : significantly larger than any UNSC Navy fighter forces as there are only : so many ships for them to launch from vs how many airbases each colony : planet could have. Well we know that each ship has a complement of Naval and Marine Corps aircraft, a good squadron for a UNSC frigate (10-11 more aircraft than a modern frigate). Cruisers would likely have the complement of modern supercarriers with 70-100 aircraft, with carriers of different classes having hundreds of aircraft. As there's multiple carrier battlegroups within each fleet, multiple fleets within a system-based fleet (Home Fleet, Epsilon Eridani Fleet, Bliss Fleet, etc.), your looking at tens of thousands of aircraft per large fleet and potentially hundreds of thousands, if not millions, across Fleet Command.
