I REALLY dont like the way this has been applied to every AF.
This specific bonus should only be on the Jag-
And every other AF needs to get its own hull specific bonus.
Whitewash doesn't solve anything.

The dual MSE jag, my fav ship of all time, is now AWESOME 
Also, try a 3 OD II (oe 2 OD DCU) AB II or C type AB fit with snakes and boosters.

I just Solo'd in succession with no break to reload or regen shields:
2* Taranis, 1 Crow, 1 Ares
Using an AB fit Jaguar- and i only have AF3 and crappy skills and a t1 tank. They all had t2 fits.
(and on an entirely unrelated note, Erebus can track 1.3KM/S AB Jags with XL turrets)

they don't have to be faster, they can already fit AB + scramble + web, after warping in on primary tackler, which is enough to pin almost anything down. What they need to fulfil this role is opportunity to resist against ennemy e-war without having to use slots for that, Amarr could resist better to neuts, caldari to jammers, etc... AB boost make them way overpowered in comparison to anything which has medium guns on it.
AB boost isn't about speed- its about speed tanking in orbit of something tackled.
I still maintain ONLY the Jaguar should get the AB speed Bonus.
Other AF's should get different Boni (yes that's right grammar ****s)
Wolf: Tracking
Retribution: Tracking or Armor rep bonus.
Vengeance: Rocket Exp Velocity and sig facor reduction to make them GOOD with rockets.
Hawk: 70% reduction in PG usage of Assault missile launchers; or 90% or w/e.
Harpy: 5% shield resistsper level AF.
Enyo: Hyrid cap use reduction or another 5% damage bonus if that isn't too OP.
Ishkur: Drone control range bonus OR controversial +5 bandwidth per level to let it be a mini Ishtar.

You can speed tank in orbit of a medium turret ship without any propulsion mods at all already.
WTB idiotic opponents that cant fit cruisers.
I dont think i quite articulated what i mean there- Getting to the target to tackle isnt why you have the AB bonus.
You have to AB bonus to make your harder to remove that a demon Tic once you get tackle on something that has already been fast tackled by an interceptor.
For Solo or small gang work Esp. for AF gangs I'm still going to use a Jag with a MWD- i will not use just an AB; although to be honest i usually fly them as dual AB/MWD fits.
Like you said- its a binary choice. If you aren't relying on others for tackle NOT fitting a MWD is stupidity.

AFs are primary tacklers? Interesting.
Yeah, i agree thats a very 0.0 POV.

For those of you confused about how to fit your Jag:
Dual MSE, Scram and AB II with extender rigs.
When you break about 1.1 k m/s with no MWD sig bloom the sig increase from extenders is irrelevant unless you are an EFT warrior alone.

Of course there is a benefit coming from this...
Minmatar Buff \o/
A race supposed to hold the field as far as small fast ships....does.
I retract ALL my concerns about the AB bonus- provided it stays on the Jag.
Don't care what you do to the other AF's, just get your filthy mits away from my new Jag.
About damn time we got some love

'We realized our blanket bonus was stupid so now we are going to pretend we never wanted to buff AF's anyway'
