Actually, I believe we'd actually have to convert the Cargo Bay into a Launch Bay, with catapult launchers and other stuff you need for one.  Luckily we just GOT 2 launch bays complete with squadrons, so we can put one (I'd recommend using the Common quality launch bay and not the poor quality one) into the Kobras Aquairre.<br/><br/>It'll be a fairly permanent change, but we can always steal one of the pirate's transports for cargo runs anyway... and the addition of a fighter launch bay to the Kobras Aquairre will be a huge power boost in combat.<br/><br/>As I pointed out, however, it'd be no more difficult to accomplish than putting it in the orbital platform, and having a carrier (even a minor one) as part of our battle group would be a huge advantage.
