Yeah, NPC Krayts and Y-Wings are turretless. We're the only one's who get to experience the pleasure of an aimbot massage.
Never seen an NPC Krayt fighter... Where were you able to see one? I thought there were only PC Krayts because they added in the ship after JTL was released and didn't bother to add them into the missions.
They haven't been added to any missions I know of. NPC Ywings actually do have a turret they dont use JanuHull. It can be separately targeted using [ ] It just doesn't fire as one.

Joust the darn things, it's really the only way to do it.

Not really the only way, not even the best way.

Another good idea is, when dealing with...ships with turrets (aggressor, y-wing)

I always flew up their tailpipe, killed them that way...
Approaching an Aggressor from the six is like flying up in front of one and parking.
You're just asking to die... that turret hits just as hard as the forward guns on a head-on approach.
Come at it from oblique angles - there's a better chance that the turret will miss you if your delta-v is not effectively nil.

When I'm flying my freelancer I just get behind them and target the rear gun to disable it, then it's just another target.

But, maybe it is asking to die from your point of view, but with ctss I've never had a problem shooting off the guns of an aggressor before they go through my shields
