The sentry guns do a ton of damage, and the missile batteries are popping off 450 dmg heavy missiles. Unless you have a solid, high-HP, high-resist tank and a quick way to eliminate the webbing/scrambling frigs, chances are you will get pwned very rapidly. Once the frigs and cruisers are down, the turrets and batteries are tankable, so you can just grab the documents out of the can (I shot that for 20 damn minutes before I realized that all I had to do was walk up to it and use it as a cargo can) and head home. I use a Vagabond with Autocannons, and the Angel version of the Spy Stash is the only level 3 mission that I have to warp out of occassionally. Personally I like the mission, but I can understand that people with Tech I ships have problems I have bigger problems with the first stage than with the second one. My autocannons (+ webber and target painter) rip any orbiting scrambler frigs to shreds in seconds, and I can tank the second stage long enough to at least do serious damage before warping out, mostly I don't need to. But in the first stage my short range setup makes it difficult to keep the aggro groups separate, I usually end up with the whole stage chasing after me, which is a bit much
