All other things being equal - the hound (minmatar)
Fastest of the stealth bombers, lowest sig radius, Minmatar trained characters are likely to have proficient missile skills (not a benefit of the ship per-se but a factor when you are doing threat assessments)
But the most important factor is the hound's explosive missile and bomb damage bonus, as usually this is the weakest resist on any armor tank, with armor tanks being the most prevalent in game.

I would probably rate them in order of usefulness / stats.
1. Hound
2. Nemesis
3. Manticore
4. Purifier
Which pretty much sums up the game, in terms of pvp race choices right now

yah kind of what i thought-
maybe the manticore could get its dmg bonus to all types of missles? or would that be to OP?- just trying to have it retain something nice : (

I beg to differ... the purifier's grid make it a very attractive bomber, at least in my eyes... and against frigs, EM is not a bad damage type at all... the only frigs that will give you problems are t2 minmatar ones, the AFs and inties in particular... everything else dies just as fast to EMs as to any other damage, if not faster
of course, against things that are likely to be decently armour tanked (t2-fitted cruisers and up) it begins to suffer, but that's a different matter
hell, what other bomber can fly around with 1800 armour and a bcu2 fitted?
[EDIT] oh and the manticore really isn't that bad... maybe my aproach to bombers is weird, but I rarely go for speed, and usually go for a hitpoint buffer... the manticore can get a very thick HP buffer, or it can get great damage with 2 BCU2s, great locking with 2 SBs, and still have dual dampeners for cloak/uncloak immunity
and please don't describe this as a stealth bomber nerf, they ALL got boosted, even the manticore... just cause it's no longer the best doesn't mean it's a nerf, as when it was best it was still ****

Hit point buffer really isn't helpful on stealth bombers unless you're doing a big bomb trap, then EM is definitely not the way to go, but I take your point.
