Kill bombers with fighters or gunboats.
Kill gunboats with other gunboats.
Kill caps with other caps or bomber spam.
Or just kill everything with gunboats.
I don't know where do you both live, but sole gunboat is in danger if there are three fighters (preferably with codes) against it.
Hate to agree with fluffy here, but seems people want to Tank cat in a battle and win.
Turret view has a fantastic counter. (hint: you're in space)
SCRA gunboats are not the most powerful things out there, but players don't all have the same skills. Each craft requires a different flying style.
I kept on dying on the freelancer Kusari gunboat until I found out it was my fault. I was dying against bombers and having to run from VHFs. Then I got so good people swore I was cheating, when I just got a lot better at the ship and its limits.
I really think that helps because people do normally default to powering through and not picking targets and learning how to frustrate the other player to making a mistake. Loadout helps a lot too. I learned that from heavier transports.
I'd fly into Connecticut with the scra ship and practice. You'll like it after a while.
