Currently with fighters, you can only have 1 pilot per fighter, plus the fighter's weapon is coaxial. What if larger fighters (say, size 4 up) took two pilots instead of one, but were either able to support two different weapons (say, a cannon and a chaingun) or have a turreted weapon, so they could for instance shoot behind? Effectively giving you larger gunship-like fighters and smaller interceptor fighters. This would also give more benefit to having larger combat fighters beyond simply being cheaper
