Which ship is the best at hitting Subsystems?
Bombers
Ion Frigates
or Pulse (sp?) Covettes?

Bombers and Ion/Torpedo frigates work well for me.

Bombers are the best bet.

But Pulsas shoot SOOO fast :) Arn't they anti-frigate?
Bombers pack a bigger subsystem punch once they are upgraded. Cheaper than pulsars too.

Anything that works alright against caps in general and has ok manuverability seems to work great.
Personally, I use whatever is in the area, I haven't come across the situation where I say to myself "I'll want to disable this so I'll build this", I just build to counter what's out there and use whatever's handy when it comes time to target a subsystem.

A full group of 12 bomber squadrons will take out a subsytem in 2 or 3 runs.

Bombers. They are simply gods riding in chariots in this game.

Gods that are blasted into piddly bits with only half a dozen flak cannons with some interceptor escorts. And maybe a torp frigate or two.
Gods? Hah. Effective maybe. There are no gods in this game.

I love taking out a bomber group with my flak frigs.

Plus, if the target you blow up hs more missiles incoming as it explodes, those incoming will retarget themselves onto other enemies!:argh:

Bombers are nice, they own subsytems, but certainly aren't god like.
they have light armor and even in large group aren't very effective against mothership hulls. Also Flak frigates rip them to pieces.
