As you can see, the Guardian turns a bit faster than the Avenger, in addition to not having the backwards Wing.
The Avenger has 2,200 extra hull or 5,500 extra hull with Armor.
However a notable flaw in the Avenger is that it has the Backwards wing, the wing somewhat enlarges its hitbox, and a fair number of Liberty Pirate fighters are highly-manuverable... Leading anyone who wants to have a fighting chance go for the Guardian.

Thus the Avenger is mostly left out, its advantages over the Guardian do not fulfill the dis-advantages... And going off the infocard, the Guardian is cheaper and easier to produce and a bit all around better.

my idea was to change the Avenger into what modern day Air Force's would call it a "Superiority Fighter"

An air superiority fighter is a type of fighter aircraft intended to enter and seize control of enemy airspace. Air superiority fighters are usually more expensive and procured in lesser numbers than multi-role fighters.

The old Avenger infocard also stated it was to be 'maneuverable'.

I'm proposing we do one of the following with the Avenger.

PLAN A
Make it a semi-large(Like it is now) maneuverable fighter, that would feature a bit less mass and near Wrath-Switchblade turning speeds.

The Avenger would be able to function as a large'ish but maneuverable ship that would be able to gun-down enemy fighters with its maneuverability, in a manner similar to that of the Nomad Light Fighter, kinda-large but maneuverable. It might however loose out a bit in large-scale group fights.

PLAN B
We go down the road the Avenger is now, take off the turret and add an extra gun somewhere.
Increase its capacity to 12800 and its regeneration rate to 1340. Increase its armor to some 13,500-14,500.
Or we can keep the turret and add the gun still.

The Avenger would mainly concentrate on firepower and out-classing the enemy to win.

PLAN C
Make it into an Interceptor, the power and hull would stay the same so would the weaponry, the turning speed increased some like PLAN A. IF POSSIBLE give it an increased thruster-powerplant from other ships, decrease its time to Cruise by some, and increase its thruster speed in a manner similar to the Camera Ship, although not as fast.

The increased speed from the thruster improvements would allow the Avenger to quickly deliver strikes and have increased evasion skills.
