There are 2 facts:
1. Usualy the chain goes like this:
Miner mines ice, he sells it to the POS owner for a profit. POS owner extracts moon materials and makes simple reactions wich he sells to the T2 component manufacturer for a profit. T2 component manufacturer makes the t2 components and sells them to the t2 ship bpo owner for a profit. T2 ship bpo owner sticks the bpo into the factory for 30-36 hours!! and he sells the ship for a profit.
And let's take a look at the Zealot (ignoring market trend for a bit). Payout ~18mil??? I mean the Omen is at least 3 mil so payout 15 mil? For a ship that takes THAT long to make and involves such a long chain? It's a joke!
2. Now, on the other hand maybe somebody at CCP thought "What if the Zealot BPO owner will mine his ice, deploy his own POSes, make his own components? Could be exploited!! He will blow his ships for a 12 mil comeback in isk!! THis should not happen!

IMO all ships insurances should be the same, and I won't mind seeing the same kind of insurance on T1

the point is is that t2 is no longer rare, its not a luxury
faction items and other named are luxury items. tech 2 is supposed to be a step up from tech one. The point is that its not just rich 30 mill sp characters flying it anymore
and its very hard for someone with limited time in game to sustain more than one or two hac losses a week. Imho this is totall BS and not the ship. tech 2 isnt meant to be some uber rare class of items , its what we all train and slave and PAY real life money to use. but either ccp needs to cap prices on tech 2 or step up with proper compensation insurance. as it is the current system rewards those with no lives or jobs that play for 18 hours a day and punishes those that only have an hour or three tops a day to pursue thier love of the game.
I don't think a viable solution can be implemented. If minerals are quite traded on the market and so an average for minerals costs => battleship cost => insurance cost can be quite accurate, it's not the same with tech 2 comps. A lot of tech 2 comps are delivered by direct trade/escrow as part of a supplying contract so an average can be quite innacurate => tech 2 comps price can't be used as a reference for insurance cost.
But my sympathy goes only to those who fly certain Tech 2 ships, if your deimos for wich you paid 120mil goes boom, you deserve the current insurance for paying that much.
