I knew I shouldn't take my chances with that one, I'm not ready to such a prowess, I'm not so skilled yet, and however, I tried it anyway.
The Rogue Gunboat, Dragons_fire, was spotted near to West Point, I took the trade lane there, and I found it. He was headed to Manhattan, and I chase him, he leaded me above the plane, something like 15-20k above Manhattan. It was clear to shoot, and I took my chances, but, I missed some SNAC shots, and his missiles were not missing at all. I left him with 20% of nanos and 0% of bats, but I was forced to retreat.
To be optimistic, at least I sent him to find some repairs.
