Advanced combat ?'s

I read about people putting together fighter wings for carriers/TL's and having multiple ships do the sector patrolling.

Can someone go into some more detail on this for me. I am in the process of building my production empire in Ore belt. I have a herc TL doing station placements and an M6 nemmy patrolling right now, but I wanted to have some of my spare fighters following the M6 to help the patrol till I get another M6. How do I accomplish this?

Set the m3's to protect the M6? Or when I move to an M6 do I do the same or set it on a seperate sector patrol and let them just re-enforce one another?

Setting up fighter wings? How do I link them together? Do they auto launch from the carrier/TL?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

The most simplest of ways to do that is to set the fighters to protect, the corvet it will then alter its speed so the escort ships can keep up, it would be good to have fast m3 fighters like the parinid ones.

there are uther ways but this one works fine

Is that what people do for their dual M6 patrolls as well? Just set on to protect?

What about fighter wings?

yer do the same with corvets one on atack all enemys and the outher on protect corvete 1, the only way the fighters stay together is when they are protecting a station/home base the split into groups and engage multiple targets.

if u look at the station defence ships in combat it will say some thing like

nova 2 atacking target of nova 1 ect.
