Cap fighters vs Snub figthers, "balanced" fights? why so much qq?

Yes, yes we can.
Introduce Mk II fighters and Mk II Caps.

Not only as a moneysink, but also for the sake of what you have described before. Make the Mk II snubs open to anyone, make the Mk II caps SRP.

Good luck finding devs that are willing to do that for ya :/
A simple model gets lost amongst the depths of the dev forum, then you'd expect that making an MK. II version of each cap and fighter would ever be done ? I think not ...

However, @Mímir had the idea that actually might work, however, there is the question of bombers, which then would make caps sitting ducks, since their guns wouldn't be able to hit bombers... which would cause moar QQ when a single bomber nukes a CAU8 BS ...

So I'm not sure if there is a win-win situation out of that
