This is very tricky (possibly bugged), but in my game, I've managed to do it. However, I don't know the exact change that caused this. Since it's buggy, I don't want to go and change anything to tell you exactly what causes it, but I can tell you what I changed to limit the max of 5 interceptors in my game.
In the Data editor, go to the Carrier, and scroll down to the "Carrier - Launch Interceptor (Persistent)", and change the "period count" to 2 (or whatever number you end up wanting your Carrier to have).
Next, go to "Carrier - Hangar" ability and open "Info +". Then double click on the Interceptor and scroll down to the bottom. You'll probably want to change "count start" to 0 or 1, since this determines how many a Carrier starts with when it is created. Also, you can change how long it takes to create the interceptors and their cost in here as well.
Finally (I think), you want to go to the Requirements tab, and find "Arm Interceptor". In there, double click on "Requirement +" and I believe the default constant in there is 8? If it is, change it to the number you want.
Hello,
I am trying to reduce the maximum number of interceptors from 8 to 2. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance for your help!

I hope that helps you.
