To be honest the only time the hyperdrives on the fighters have ever been significantly used is in guerrilla warfare, which is beyond the scope of this game. While they can use their hyperdrives to travel places, fighter cockpits are rather cramped and they obviously can't eat and stretch and such. To be in actual tip top fighting shape they have to remain aboard carriers regardless of how well their hyperdrives work. I believe most of the time they are carried with ships until just before a battle and then they use their hyperdrives for the final jump in to save deployment time, which isn't a gigantic issue in Sins anyway.
