Knowing my luck there's probably already a thread two posts down but I did look, honest guv!
Currently I'm running 2 chars in Minmatar space in a typhoon (minnie spec'd) and a mega (gallante spec'd). I find missions quite effective in isk grinding but dull so my aim is to do them quicker if possible. I usually loot/salvage afterwards as despite trying not to I just can't leave a can unopened 
After some reading I was going to upgrade to tengus (cross training needed) as this seemed to be the favored ship nowdays and the scourge bonus is ok with angels.
Then I read some comments by people who said that for hi-sec the drake was just as good as the tengu, which made some sense. Then I read some stuff which said the maelstrom is the best ship to run against angels and is tempting because it's about a quarter of the price of a tengu.
So know I'm confused and would appreciate your input. I've ruled out marauders as I understand it's better to use the racial ship (e.g. vargur = angels) but would take ages to get the gallante char into one.

If you want to rule out marauders, you can skill towards the machariel, which is way more effective than a tengu. If thats too expensive for you, a maelstrom is better than a phoon for low skilled pilots. Forget gallente entirely, the damage profile is bad vs angels and railguns are crap.

You have Minmatar and Gallente, combine them for the power of Mach.

Well, you answered my question although it wasn't the answer I was hoping for
Guess I'd better start saving.

I would get a Maelstrom first as it should do much better than the Typhoon. Then train for a Machariel and/or Vargur. Vargur does fine against any rats in Level 4 missions.

As a fellow Angel hunter I must say that I am very happy with my Maelstrom. 800's with 3 RF gyros and 2 T2 Tracking enhancers give you the range and damage to chew through missions. The only thing that holds you back is moving her big ass from point A to B.
You've got enough mid slots for a forgiving tank, too. The only time i've warped out is the bonus room of AE4. I didn't have the range to kill all the towers first, so by the time I finished off the last cruiser the BS's started making solid hits.
But two ships mean you have one for range and one up close..
