Among the many player ships available in the X4 game, there are several that stand out as being particularly well-suited for carrying small fighters. These ships offer a variety of advantages, including increased firepower, enhanced survivability, and the ability to launch and recover fighters in the field.
One of the most popular player ships for carrying small fighters is the Odysseus Vanguard. This ship is heavily armed and armored, making it a formidable opponent in combat. It also has a large hangar bay that can accommodate up to four small fighters. Another popular choice is the Teladi Osprey. This ship is not as heavily armed as the Odysseus Vanguard, but it is much faster and more maneuverable. It also has a larger hangar bay, which can accommodate up to six small fighters.
