are fighters with spyglass/battleship scanners OORP?

[Omi]

I bet you didn't realize the BS Scanner still said it reached out to 20k. You know what that was for? Finding objects in space. Holes, planets, whatnot.

Not only that, it was once the Battleship License. It was never meant to be on fighters to begin with.

You want to abuse the obviously unbalanced scanner and blow hundreds of millions on them, throwing them on all of your fighters? Be my guest.

Don't you dare complain when your toy is broken.

I've never bought a Battleship License/Scanner in my life - whether attached to a battleship or not. Sorry to disappoint.

I just don't see the sense in locking things away behind more restrictions et cetera, especially the part outlined about the Spyglass Scanner. Repurpose it as some other kind of scanner, at least; don't throw it away as a package deal with two of the least flown/seen ships in the entire mod. A lot of the complaints about the Battleship Scanner seem to be just related to its name, and could be solved by a simple namechange to something like Wide Array Scanner, or something similar and less bad-sounding.

Explore into scouting LFs, or something.
