How well suited is the NH for missions, these days, compared to 2-3 years ago?
We're talking solo lvl4 security.
Assume I've got everything trained to 5. |

overly tanky, good application, not great raw dps or projection. wtf 5 lowslots too. Tengu will be better all around.

If you don't care how long it takes to do them and you want a more relaxed style it'll work fine. A Raven will do them faster if you're willing to fly a battleship. |

Since I fly solo, there's no boosting. |

Nighthawk has 1 advantage over tengu! Its cheaper!
My estimate is NH prob 50% cheaper fully fit compared to tengu.
NH can kick out missiles to decent ranges and has the targeting range to boot , main downside imo is lack of mid slots compared to other ships. So it lacks a bit in utility, and a bigger drone bay would be nice to have but thats a trait i feel is needed on all the CS that only have 25m3 bays. |

So if HM get a boost, NH will be a sweet L4 mission ship? |

CCP nerfed them not too long ago. I wouldn't hold my breath for a boost. If you like the ship by all means run missions with it. As long as you fit a prop mod you'll be fine. Just don't expect fast completion times |

Gets a 500dps passive tank and puts out >700dps with HAMs. So its still pretty good for missioning. Free Ripley Weaver! |

Looks nice on paper but what you're not looking at is that DPS is only at 17 km (20 km with a T2 rig) using kinetic missiles. You're doing 0 DPS while burning in range of the target and due to being stuck with kinetic damage type you might be going up against high resists further reducing the "actual DPS" you're doing.
I'm not saying the Nighthawk is a POS or incapable of doing missions. It is more than capable but many other T1 ships will outperform it. I really really wish it wasn't the case though because I spent a bit of time training for it. |

No, because it'll still be only half as good/fast as an HML tengu.
