After getting some good advice from others about what drones to use in my Rokh for coping with interceptors, hacs and other small and/or fast attackers, I think I'm going to switch from Valyrie II's to Warrior II's. However, with the Rokh's stinky 50m3 drone bay, carrying 5 Warrior II's leaves me with only 25m3 left over and I'm not sure what else I should put in there.
Should I fill it up with:
1. A second wave of 5 Warrior II's.
2. A single web drone. 
3. 5 light ecm drones.
Or something else entirely?
The most obvious choice out of those would seem to be the light ecm drones, but I must say, they have always seemed hopelessly ineffective compared to their medium counterparts. The medium ecm drones jam pretty reliably, while I think I've only ever gotten a few successful jams out of the light ones.
Thanks for any advice!

Go for 5x medium ecm drones.
Lights aren't likely to help you out much. Light drone dps isn't useful against anything bigger than a ceptor/frig. And against a fast frig light drones aren't always useful.
You need the medium ecm drones to escape.

I would go with a flight of Warrior IIs and Light ECMs if you're trying to avoid ceptors.
You could also go 5 x Medium ECM Drones.

Either 5 med. ecm
or
5 light ecm + 5 warrior ii's
Helps u take care o tacklers and as your not gonna be in any kind of range, if your sniping, to use meds for anything useful lights are handy.
Most stuff that ull need it for is fast ships burning towards you to get a point, in which case 5 light ecm have a better chance of catching the faster ships, 5 still have an ok chance at jamming, OR u can use the warrior II's to kill the friggy tacklers getting up your rear.
But either is not bad, 5 med ecm wld probly fair better agaisnt warp-ins agaisnt you, though ur kinda skrewed when that happens anyway...

5 x Hammerhead II, which I'm surprised no one else suggested.
