It depends on the ship, though. My corp mate(s) in their CNR take out the cruise launchers first. In my NH I find it's the HACs which are the pain. I turn round on entry and start moving away to try and keep distance while picking the HACs off. If there are webifiers I might take a pot shot at them but usually just launch my drones. Once the HACs have gone I'll take out the nearest BS then turn around and fly back in.
Tbh I don't actually have to fly away in my NH..I think it can probably tank the lot anyway but I've always been careful (never lost a ship in a mission in over 3.5 years of playing) and running away for a while costs me nothing.

This is how I solo it in a Nighthawk.
Everything agros once you shoot sentries, or if you get close to/shoot the structures with the neat loot.
Huh? Everything aggroes on entry anyway.

tried it for the first time last week in a t2 fitted nighthawk, had no problems just a couple warp outs
Um..."just a couple warp outs". That means you couldn't handle it.
Warping out of a mission is not a strategy, it's a failure.

Use to solo it with my T2 Drake, now that I graduated into a Nighthawk and still havent had a chance to use this in it :(
A word of warning - this is one of the few missions that can break a Nighthawk tank. Given good to excellent skills it's not particularly hard but if you're only just starting out with a NH you need to be careful and respectful of this mission. As I noted earlier the HACs (cruiser sized ships) appear to be the real problem for us. Fly away from the retirement home at first while taking out the HACs (watch out for webbing frigates). You'll probably also have to take out one BS that gets a bit close but after that you can dive back in.
Given maxed out skills and faction gear I think a NH can sit there and just take it without firing back. One day I might try that but it seems kind of silly and an pointless risk
