Yeah, I know.

What I'm asking is, why does the Lincoln not have more MAS's? I thought we weren't the only squad on it.

Because the UEE still primarily use aerospace fighters- the Lincoln has some dozen aerospace fighters, a few bombers, gunships, and scout craft on board on top of the 7th. 

Each carrier in the 5th fleet has a single MAS squadron in its hold, aside from the flagship, which has more. And our squadron is some 12 pilots? That's a lot bigger than most squadrons by far. If you notice, our squadron is usually outnumbered only because multiple Coalition ships release their entire squadrons to face ours. Also, a giant robot takes up considerably more space than a Fighter. 

Also, yeah the Lincoln definitely has enough arms and armor to fight off up to a battleship threat- those carriers are renowned for being able to take a big beating and keep moving.
