Ok my area is starting to have some problems with pirates that are flying Interceptors alot....
its getting annoying...
So, to combat the issue, i need a tank that can stand up to sentry guns AND have a very fast lock time...
I did a quick setup on a HARBINGER and got 2.2 second lock time on a Frigate ( using EFT )
also the ship NEEDS to be an amarr ship... |

Harbinger is a good choice, ide go with the prophecy tho, better tank for gate guns, can still catch a inty with SB's and a scram, web.
My question tho is why are you trying to engage them at the gate where they actually have the advantage... get a buddy to sit in a belt cloaked in a rapier, then you in gank ship and be bait.
Ide actually go with an arbitrator tho,
1x Small nuet(for the ones that like to get close)
2x 650mm Atry's with titanium sabot, or nuclear ammo, faction ofc
1x drone link agumentor
1x Warp Disruptor II
1x Tracking disruptor( range script)
2x Drone Nav comps
1x 1600RT Plate
2x EANM II
1x DC II
A whole mix of drones, atleast 50m3 of warrior II's

well since they are sometimes solo ( with alts watching the systems ) i think catching them at the gate is key as im not sure they are going to jump me in belt.... but its a interesting idea...
also, using a harbinger is important cause it has 4 mids..... 3 SB's with scripts and warp scrammer...
i like the prophecy, but only 3 mid slots not 4... |

we always roll 2 - 3 ships at least deep when we do setup gate camps....
so another ship would be doing the webbing... albeit, its a problem if he hits the MWD as soon as he uncloaks.... |

Gonna be real hard catching an interceptor in anything unless he's stupid. We typically use a triple SB Lach, max skilled gang boosters in gang, and even with sub 2 sec lock times its still hard/impossible (figure in the +1 sec for mod activation to).
Best choice for purely killing interceptors would be a disco ship.

Pew on gate, if it gets hot, jump through and Ctrl-Q. Game mechanic endorsed by CCP. |

This.
With perfect reactions you need a (small) part of a second to initiate locking, then you have module activation lag which can be anything from half a second to two seconds, and by the time you're done with all this, the interceptor is already in warp.
Anyway, disco ship is what you need.

Unless you alpha strike him, he'll fly out of range, even if you locked him in time.
The good news, since you are on a gate, he can't possibly kill you without backup (assuming you are in FW or an outlaw to stop the sentries from aiding you).
