This is not the most powerful or tankiest fighter out there, but if you need to travel a long distance, do some shooting, and come back, it's one of the best. Practical, armored fighting builds can still manage a 22ly jump range, which is pretty good for a fighter. When I was doing powerplay I used one for a while as an armed personal runabout, and it's still my ship of choice for distant combat CGs.
In this age of ship transfers, the long-range deep space fighter is not as important a niche as it used to be, but the recent combat CG in Maia, where the nearest shipyard is 270+ ly away, shows there's still a need.
