Sounds like a common issue regarding fighter movement on ships Ships with 
fighter movement enabled want to move to their maximum range before firing 
weapons after cool down. When a ship is being chased it keeps flying straight 
trying to reach its maximum range, creating these scenarios where it flies way 
out of the grav well because the two ships have similar/same max speed.

Its annoying and takes a long time to get them back on track

I haven't seen many issues with it, but it should be able to be made pretty 
rare by adjusting the ranges and speeds on ships.
