Be sure to use Large Mount weapons. That can make a big difference too.

Also, I noticed you were using Scattering Armor. I would suggest you use Stealth Armor + 2 Armor 3 instead of Scattering Armor. I believe it is cheaper and more effective. Scattering Armor II: +10% def, 150 KT dam. Stealth II + Armor III x 2: +10% def, 180 KT dam.

Also, the defense bonus of Scattering Armor and Stealth Armor are additive. Always use Stealth Armor before adding Scattering Armor. The only advantage in Scattering armor is you component is not damage between 100 KT of damage and 140 KT of damage. Basically, one hit difference when Large Mount weapons are used against you.

If you have trouble hitting, faster rate of fire weapons are good for your fighters. You expect with +50 to hit + 10 for the sensor that you should hit most of the time, but against good defense and longer range, that is not necessarily true. A small APB or small DUC fighter may have served you better (could use kamakazi orders for those - ramming does not get affected by defense).
