Brief:
The bombers are on a fixed path. They will be intercepted on their way. Escort fighters, protect your bombers!!!! If you loose them, the mission is a fail. However, if the bombers can release their payload, even if they only scratch the paint of the target, the escort mission was successful.

Consider your options.

They will be intercepted on their way.
What is easier to evade incoming hostiles while your escort fighters work on taking them out. A bulky bomber with a high payload or lighter bombers?

if the bombers can release their payload, even if they only scratch the paint of the target, the escort mission was successful.
The target doesn't has to be destroyed. The mission is bomber escort.

You know why this setup? Since Wing Commander, X-Wing, Freespace and god knows whatever space sims, the escort missions always were the worst. Staying alive fighting other ships is easy. Make sure that the ships you need to protect stay alive is a complete other story.

Trying to clear my crimestat to prepare.

But I found bountyhunters seem to camp every security station or are bored enough to follow me repeatedly between arcorp and microtech.

Should I just let them shoot me down and will prison remove any equipment or only what I have actually equipped?

You only lose what you have on you. When I head to Cellin to clear after I get a crimestat I strip down to next to nothing and take my 100i out. If I die I die and don't lose anything, if I clear I go reequip and grab another ship. I love my 100i, but it is useless so crime clearing is its role for me.
