Just wanted to try something different. Interesting battle with a cutter near the end.

I'd drop 10T just for the entertainment factor

SLFs are a big annoyance but not so effective against hull tanks. If it's an imperial fight I can delete it in around 4 seconds usually.
with most of their weapon being beam, i understand.
Or is there a multi cannon ver

I had fun the other day attempting to get that hauler of yours in my conda! But Punished Mobius chased me off.
Till next time!
I am astonished.
Astonished anyone that bad of a pilot could have made the rank to gain a Cutter. Nothing personal against the Commander there, but...
A shieldless hauler should have been a faint memory within the first 7-10 seconds of the encounter. Even with Reactive Surface composites fully G5'd, it should have been reduced to debris. One good ramming from a Cutter would maul a small craft like that.

All the hallmarks of a Quince Cutter thinking they are invincible.
'Watch me squash this innocuous Hauler with my mighty Cutter, oh ok on the next pass then, oh ok, hmmm, I'll be off now..'
Even still, they would still be required a certain amount of flight time, and the completion of a number of Imperial Navy missions, so they'd have to learn some piloting and I would think at least more than bare-basic combat skills... but what do I know? I worked for all my ships - all of them, Cutter and Corvette included.
And for all those ships, I've spent the last four days getting around in a rather basic Federal Dropship.... go figure.
there's a condor variant with fixed multis. No idea how well it would fare vs a hull tank.
Well done Cmdr.
Your videos are always emergent and entertaining.

Oh yes. That was fun. You had my power plant down to 14% with (I assume) a rail shot so I didn't expect to last much longer. I think I have the vid laying around somewhere. If I can find it I'll post it to my channel.
See, this is the sort of thing I'd happily try with an alt. We need additional CMDR slots, even just 1 or 2 more, so more us can try such things without 'corrupting' our main. No, I refuse to buy another account for something I'd only do part time on a whim, but if I had even just one alt, I'd try things like piracy and PvP more.....
Why would you need an alt account?
Having faced elite PVPers in small ships now, I wouldn't be so sure of that. An elite pilot in a small fast ship can cause real problems. It's totally different from facing PVE, as they switch on and off silent running, boost in circles and make use of lateral thrusters at the same time while spitting reverb mines at you....it's a pain.
Definitely is making me a better pilot though. Fighting good players makes you better.
OP, you being in a shieldless hauler makes this quite comical. I think some CMDRs dropped cargo as they were laughing!
