Inquiry re: Daedalus.....................

[black_raven135]

This afternoon as I watched Critical Mass which features the Daedalus, I was wondering if it is considered carrier class
and yet when I checked Stargate Omnipedia, I was shocked to find that is a battleship...........if that is so then why does it hold fighters? Battleships do not carry fighters.
Maybe I am wrong about it holding fighters, but

This episode (coming back from Earth with the Wraith virus attacking the Daedalus where they take out all the fighters' computers, and then fly at the sun) means it has them. Does this help or even make sense?

To be fair, battleships in reality might not have fighters, but these are space battleships. Since they don't travel in a fleet, they need to have some kind of protection so they have weapons and F302s (fighters). All of those ships (Prometheus, Odyssey, Apollo, and I assume the Sun Tzu and the Hammond) have had 302s.

I am always thinking about the reality rather than the SciFi side of it......

Thank you!!

It's the Air Force. They don't know proper terms for ships. And they've kept the Navy out of the Stargate Program all these years, so there was no one around to point out their mistake. ;-)
