Armour: Heavy Duty, Blast Resistant or Kinetic Resistant?

[CMDR Sirruf]

o7 Cmdrs,

As the title states: What is the best Armour blueprint against Interceptors: HD, Blast Resistant or Kinetic? I've read recently that Blast Resistant is best as the most damage comes from rockets. Is that true? I have been using HD against Interceptors but it is a fact that bug rockets cause explosive damage (set aside caustic but that's a different story).

And what about Kinetic Resistant? Isn't swarm causing kinetic damage?

Has anyone done some tests?

I'd like to know your thoughts.

As far as I've read here the most damage from the interceptors counts as absolute, so the heavy duty is the way to go. At the moment I'm grinding a little bit to build the following: AX Cutter

I would like to know where you have read that. Despite those missiles being easily avoided by boosting off, Thargoids deal absolute damage so resistances are pretty much useless. Heavy Duty.
