Little is known about Vorlon fighters. Current records indicate that the ships use a combination gravimetric drive/Hyper-real space propulsion system. These fighters appear to have enough firepower to, in small groups, destroy a Shadow Battle Crab. Fast and powerful it is also believed that Vorlon Fighters have independent Jump capability, just like Shadow fighters and apparently have greater firepower.

Current information suggests that many of the Vorlon fighters did not have pilots, instead operating as an independent extension of a Vorlon Command ship. Only the command fighters or Battle Transports had actual pilots, allowing the Vorlons to field a massive fighter squadron without fear of loosing pilots.
