Ships Need a cheapish combat vessel

My favourite ship for CZ is still the Viper 3, being small it's not easy to hit and although not the fastest or most agile it's got great acceleration also it's not considered a serious threat by the NPC's so there's less multi ship attacks than a Vulture would attract, also because it has 4 hardpoints you can play around with different loadouts, mine might seem a little odd (probably is! ;)) but it works for me.

Essentially the turrets compensate for the Viper's lowish agility keeping fire on target as you avoid incoming rounds and get lined up to fire all the weapons, I sometimes fit a 2D to reduce mass if I don't have to travel between systems, give it a try it's not as agile as the Vulture so you have to work at getting fire on target but it'll pay off in the long run.

UPDATE

Ok so I got my Hotas setup back and now everything makes sense again, I am no expert, but combat flight works for me now (I know some people find they are more accurate with KB/M, I'm the other way around)

I think I will keep the Burst laser for a while, I got a thermal shock effect on it and it does seem to chomp through both shields and hulls pretty good.
