I found the interceptor to be more useful for grinding. While it's true that you can slap pretty much every piece of equipment you have access to onto a bomber, the whole "handles like a dead cow" thing puts a pretty big crimp on grinding against the smaller, more maneuverable fighters you'll usually face in duty missions or the decently fast spawns.

Interceptor's nearly useless unless you already have a slew of exceptional RE'dparts...a scenario not typical for grinding. Go with the bomber.

Why not the Advanced? It has two gun mounts plus decent handling. I'd really love to try flying one

I really recommend searching under the Misc category for old ship deeds on the bazaar and global vendor search. Try out each of the ships. Some people swear the Bomber is a great ship to level in, but the two of us never got along.

Bomber and Interceptor and hopeless compared to the Heavy Variant TIE Fighter with 95K mass.

I used the Bomber in the notion that tanks on the ground post-cu are awesome so they must be good in space.....if you don't mind your ship moving like a sleepy Hutt that is!! lol!!!

speakin of being on crack, the &/#%&/#%& who designed the tier 4 storm squadron missions should be kicked in the nuts


to answer the topic... try an TIE advanced when you can.. same agility as the interceptor with 15k more mass and 2 guns ^_^
