Are there escort missions?

I have seen a freighter ship be escorted by a couple of sidewinders before so I was just wondering are there any missions that are similar to that? It would probably be really easy, but of course there is always the possibility of pirates ;) And i can see having a jump scanner might be handy/required. Maybe in the future they will let you team up with AI on those type of mission so you wouldn't get separated too much.

I think it would be neat to essentially have a combat ship that makes money off of trades from other people.
 
I must admit I'm scratching my head a bit as to why escort missions are absent from the game.

Are there any plans to incorporate such missions in the future?
