Can you guys be specific? Is the forward shield tuning or the forward shield reenforcement program?

Well, the shield program got me past the first aggressor, but later on in the same mission I get hit by two at the same time, dont think any program is gonna get me past that. Now i get to go back and do the whole mission over again!

What squadrom is this mission?
I am CorSec 4/3/3/3 right now on Tempestand my mission is in Dantooine space where I am on a long patrol that makes you avoid a lot of red spawns, then after 10 minutes of that gives you 4 or 5 tier 4's and a gunship to kill. I've falied it a few times now; trying to first disable the gunboat only to be blown up before I can do it and also by pulling the escorts away and killing them while the gunboat speeds off and I can't catch it again in time.

Sounds like smuggler's alliance to me, although my mission consisted of 3 Aggressors, then a Decimator accompanied by 5 TIE's and 2 Interceptors, then 3 Aggressors again, followed by the Decimator....and so on. 7 full waves of this...

At 4433 Smugglers' Alliance privateer, there are actually (and unfortunately) two missions with Tie Aggressors.
The first one is a duty mission ("Making the trade lanes in the Dantooine system safe for smugglers", or something like that). After a few easy waves of Firespray's and Tie Advanced, you run into an Agrressor. I don't know what happens next, because so far I haven't been able to get past it. I've tried using Pirate Trap and IFF scramble, but no luck so far. I'll try the shield program, though.
The second one is the 4433 "graduation" mission. In the second part of the mission, you have to capture an imperialLambda shuttle, and protect it against 3 Aggressors. I was able to kill one of them using IFF scramble, and disabling his rear-firing"weapon 1" first. But 3 is just too much for me.
Anyway, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who is having a hard time with these missions

How the Heck do I kill the Tie aggresser that comes out after the 2nd wave? Ive tryed targeting his weapons, reactor, tryed the IFF scramble and that distracts him for a whole 3 seconds. Tryed the priate trap, and all that does is bring out more ships whaling on me. Nothing seems to work.

Get a rebel to make you a shield balancing extreme front program. Put it in your droid and run it before you get to the waypojnt. Not just follow that bas'tard until he's dead.
If that doesn't work, geta few friends to keep the others off your tail. But get that program! It is a GREAT tool for these annoying ships.

Oh, and target his weapon first. That will stop him from using his turret. then just let your weapons continue on and kill him off. Disable him if you want AFTER the weapon is finished off.
P.S. Friends help a lot in the Aggressor missions.

If thats the bloddy Tie that can fire at you while you are on its tail i would try this.. Worked for me at least once!
- Find a rebel, trade some flight programs and get the program to add focus more power on the from shield.. If you know a Imp ask him to give you his weapon flight program that gives you some unlimited firing time, dont have to worry about your cap running low on power!
Then attack it, target its weapon and do head on attacks.. fly again him fire, when we gets close you let him pass and hit the boosters and start truning right and left like crazy to avoid the tail gunner! And continue this to you knock out his tail gunner! If you get im to much damamge do a jump to lightspeed but not out of the space sector! Reload your shield and go back for a new go.. Thats what i did!
Got him quite low on shield and armor, then he was starting to chew my armor.. I hit "H" and another part og the same sector i was in, then make a quick run to the space station and did a 75% repair! And back out in to action and finished him off
long prosses but it worked
