Everyone has their favorite ship but now we want to know which ship is the best dog fighter and loadout? This INCLUDES bombers (I know they’re not technically fighter ships).

For Me:
Fighter: Aegis Sabre (Comet)
Loadout: Stock (haven’t refined it yet)

Aye this ship is love. There is something sexy about it when flying in both space and in atmosphere hunting those tankie Hornets.

Mine to but after a unfortunate event I accidentally melted it and it was a CCU so I lost it 🤣
But I have the regular Sabre to, so basically only lost one with the alternative color skin.

And for load out I almost never change on a ship cause IMO your skill level ain't gonna improve with better gear or add on guns.
If you don't know how to use what you got to it's max then better guns wont help, learn to use what you got and when you start making progress then it's time to try new stuff.
And since add on gear is not perfect or flawless and still very much not all fine tuned I tent to stick with the one proven to work reliable rather that powerful.
Well that's how I see it. 🙃🍻

Favorite dog fighter?

Um, Michael Vick?

What, too soon?
*repeatedly dies laughing & then resurrects*

I'm waiting for him to be hired as the next QB for the Cleveland Browns because if he can't get the "Dog Pound" & that team to be geared up for a good fight, then nobody can.

Oops, at least now, if it's still too soon @Tealwraith , then at least you won't be going down alone. Cheers!

I actually don't know.

I still haven't found the one i really like.
Not much into fast and agile fighters. So this currently leaves me with Vanguard, MIS or Cutlass. (on the fighter side)
Somehow i couldn't really get used to the Vanguard. MIS is a nice ship, and probably the one i liked most yet. If i could rip out the launcher and make it more agile it probably would be MY ship.

Also i wish there was something between Vanguard and Connie size. Combat focused (balanced among armor, dakka, shields, manoeverability), no multirole, not relying too much on missiles.

So actually a Tali with fighter focus. (?)

I don't like jousting. Its just a small war of attrition to me. But I own almost every fighter in the game, my intention being to either loan or rent out to NPCs and TESTies who want to fly security and escort for my large industrial ship-based activities. Any of my personal military shenanigans will be orchestrated from the bridge of a Hammer Head. That being said, I occasionaly take a bounty mission to make some beer money, and when I do, I take the largest, most heavily armed bastard I have handy. Usually a Warden or a MIS. There is something about those size 9s on an Eclipse or a 'Tali though, it's deeply satisfying to watch a connie or a cutlass blow up(if you can get the damn torpedo to lock up). But if it's a damn Buccaneer, I usually abandon the mission altogether. I took one on the other day(in a Buccaneer) and I swear it took me 20 minutes to shoot both his wings and engines off and he still kept coming. His buddies shot off one of my wings and engine and I was down to 1 mantis, so I left, spawned a MIS, went back and killed him and to of his friends with just the guns on the MIS
