I'm not sure where you got your info, but interceptors did not get that. Here are the patch notes for the Stiletto:
Quote:Stiletto
Minmatar Frigate Bonuses: 5% bonus to Small Projectile Turret Damage per level, 7.5% Small Projectile Turret tracking speed per level
Interceptors Bonuses: 15% reduction in MicroWarpdrive signature radius penalty per level, 5% bonus to Warp Scrambler and Warp Disruptor range per level
Role bonuses: 80% reduction in Propulsion Jamming systems activation cost, Immunity to non-targeted interdiction
Slot layout: 3H, 4M, 3L; 2 turrets, 1 launchers
Fittings: 30 PWG, 150 CPU
Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 400(+13) / 400(-22) / 500(-28)
Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap/s) : 250 / 187.5s / 1.33
Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 435 / 3.1 / 1020000(-80000) / 4.38s(-0.35)
Drones (bandwidth / bay): 0 / 0
Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 29.5km(+4.5) / 970(+45) / 5(+1)
Sensor strength: 10(+1) Ladar
Signature radius: 31
Cargo Capacity: 92(-28)
What changed was:
- Defenses tweaking
- Mass reduction (resulting in faster alignment by 0.35 seconds, and faster MWD speed by 200 m/s)
- Targeting/sensor buff
- Cargo nerf

Arty could never and has never been great at hitting an interceptor going at full MWD speed, unless it was heading right for you.

[Stabber Fleet Issue, AC sfi tracking fit]
Depleted Uranium ammo gives you some extra tracking, but you lose 33% damage compared to short range ammo. In practical terms, your tracking will only give you marginally better tracking against that orbiting Stiletto, but will wreck your damage against anything that you would otherwise be able to track.

I took the liberty of installing Odyssey and Rubicon Pyfa to reproduce the effect of the changes to the Stiletto, and got this: http://i.imgur.com/xfaoVqN.png
Just making sure everyone is operating off hard info. Namely, the only time a Stiletto with that fit would have 190 sig is if it were using Interceptors I -- regardless of the version of Eve it was operating in.
