Does FAI require much adjustment for actions between destroyer forces and smaller ships? They seem mostly intended for the big fleet actions. I am working on a scenario for a German 1916 raid on the British Dover Barrage, players handling a few destroyers or trawlers, with some merchant ships getting in the way. Is FAI suitable for this?

It should work although it really isn't optimal for actions at the lower end. The trawlers (and, depending on the class, some of the smaller DDs and TBs) are going to be considered Small Craft (all ships under 500t are considered Small Craft). So the level of detail is going to less compared with the larger ships.
