Amuro0079, thats because its not a bomber, its a fighter-bomber, read the description of the ship on an Agressor deed to see what I mean. Its not designed to be used in the same way as the TIE Bomber, the Bomber is meant for anti-cap ship work: working in groups with fighter cover to deliver massive payloads of high-damage, slow moving torpedos. The Agressor is designed for use against light and medium gunboat/frigate sized targets, and can operate without fighter cover. You fly in, unload your heavy missiles and then pull out, letting your tailgunner deal with any fighters you pick up during your run.

True, it would have a clearer purpose if there were more NPC capital ships ingame for Bombers, and multiplayer vessels were brought up the the level they should be in regards to armour, shield and weapon power.
