    The Orbital Fighter is designed to kill Orbital Stuff, like a fighter is yo kill Planes.

    So is it designed to also attack sattelites like the advanced radar sattelite or the solar one? Because from what I've experienced they fly towards the sattelite but don't attack it after I ordered them to. They do attack the Astreus when it's not that high up, but never sattelites.

    they are indeed in a very beta state, but that's normal because the game is...
    anyways there's some micro tricks to this. targeting them will just make the orbital fighters loose altitude and eventually... land O.O

    so don't do that.
    rolling the planet around, get a good feel of what point the satellite is above of and send the orbital fighters crossing that point or passing closely to it, make big paths (or they also loose altitude) you'll see they fire at it automatically, even if from a great distance as their orbit height is so vastly inferior.

    hope this tip helps. (another tip for the road : don't build umbrellas )
