Sathar Brains and fighter craft?

I've been thinking about the sathar habit of tubing brains to operate a facility and or ships but what about fighter craft?<br /><br />We have to ask why and for what purpose they would do this.<br /><br />There has been no indication that they tube a significant number of brains but there is probably no reason why they cant. NOTE: I know that this is the story in the new BSG but I wasn't coming at it from that direction.<br /><br />So I would propose that they developed a fighter that was smaller, faster and consequently more fragile than standard star fighters. Lets say its armed with laser pods and is 1ADF faster than a std fighter but with a hull point reduction and a DCR reduction.<br />
