Is there any difference between corresponding Hutt and Black Sun fighters apart from asthetics?

Hutts have way more mass. Kiraxz is useless, and after 3433, the Ixiyen is useless as well.
Actually, only the Kimo is useable at 3433, then, at 4433, the only ship you can use is the Rihk.

It's hard to say. If you train 4333, you'll have the mass, but not the power, or if you train 3433, you'll have the power but not the mass.
So, you'll have to look at what you have and then decide the best route.
After 4433, Rihk all the way. It's the only ship in the entire privateer tree with more than 90k mass. (Except for YT or FS, but both handle worse than the Rihk)

Mass only play a part when you want/need all high level parts.
I have only been up to 2-2-2-2 in priveteer, but I'm thinking I may stick to lower level weapons. They usually have very small energy per shot. If you get a High end capasitor, reactor, and shield, and then stick to low end stuff after that, I'm thinking you can use one of the low end ships quite well.

Yeah, that'll get you only so far, though. My 3k damage cannons and 1700 shields with 11.8 regen barely got me through the missions in the 4th tier.

Sure, if you want to take a week to drop each fighter attacking you at Teir 4 and 5 maybe. Your guns are very important. You don't see it right now at 2222, but there is a big jump in difficult coming for you as you get into lvl4 stuff.

Dunelizard, Kimo and Rhik (tier 4 heavy with horrid name)are the only privateer ships for me so far. Hated both the khir and the Ixi. Kimo and the Rhik handle the same, but more mass to play with in the Rhik.
I've trained the ship box first in each of my new tiers until I got to tier3 in privateer; my kimo could handle a bit more mass to make getting the third tier ship box easier...of course I didn't fly that stupid Ixi long before putting all my best in theKimo again until I got the Rhik. At tier 4 again I trained ships first to get the additional mass and since there don't seem to be many viable level 8 items I have seen yet.
