I call it "silent spring", and +1 internets if you get the joke.
[Cerberus, silent spring] Gravimetric Backup Array II Gravimetric Backup Array II Gravimetric Backup Array II Ballistic Control System II
Large Shield Extender II Large Shield Extender II Invulnerability Field II Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Improved Cloaking Device II
Rocket Fuel Cache Partition I Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
(swap the em rig for another fuel cache thingie depending on how you feel about zealots).
Not great DPS, and you sacrifice speed and tackle, but ... you're flying a cerberus, you weren't supposed to be speedy anyway.
The point being, it's ... well, it's as effective as a cerberus would be up close anyway. it has about 34,000 EHP, weak em resists but decent elsewise. But, more to the point, it can lock to 233KM and hit out to 218 or max lock range, depending on how you feel about the rocket fuel cache rig vs. the EM rig. It has 42.7 sensor strength, up from the native 16.
So, essentially, you've got a 400km bubble around your ship where falcons shouldn't like to be. They won't be able to recloack after you lock them, they won't be able to jam you as easily with the backups, and if they actually are dumb enough to let one blob of missiles get to them, well, it's about a 1200 hp alpha, which should take them to 1/3 shields.
And when you're not up against falcons, you can go back to failing next to the diemoses and zealots and curses in your own gang with your crap DPS, like usual =P.

Yeah, a possibility, could work ofc. But I suggest Hydraulic Bay Thrusters instead of your rig choices.
Have a guess why so less are interested in your post but all the nerf-falcon-posts? Yeah exactly, it's a shame...

I prefer this:
[Cerberus, New Setup 1] Ballistic Control System II Ballistic Control System II Ballistic Control System II Capacitor Power Relay II
10MN MicroWarpdrive II Large Shield Extender II ECCM - Gravimetric II Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Large Remote Armor Repair System I
Hydraulic Bay Thrusters I Hydraulic Bay Thrusters I
Similar anti-Falcon abilities, but it's actually useful if the other side doesn't bring Falcons.
(BTW: your name is appropriate)

OP's choice of rigs is terrible. The single BCS doesn't look too smart either.
I use:
[Cerberus, AntiFalcon HM] Ballistic Control System II Ballistic Control System II Ballistic Control System II Gravimetric Backup Array II
10MN MicroWarpdrive II Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range Sensor Booster II, Targeting Range ECCM - Gravimetric II ECCM - Gravimetric II
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Improved Cloaking Device II
Hydraulic Bay Thrusters I Hydraulic Bay Thrusters I
394 DPS to ~245 km with CN, or 440 DPS to ~215 km with Fury. Sensor strength of 95 when overheated. Strong range tank. Good DPS projection platform for when Falcons aren't present. Shoots from outside sentry range at gates and stations. Drop ECCM for tank as you see fit.

I wonder if a covops to scan the falcon out and a bunch of assault frigs or glass cannon cruisers would work to take out Falcons effectively. Of course never forget the sensor dampener with scan resolution script to have the Falcon scream all the way down.

not really as he will warp out/cloak
now if you can land a dictor on him, maybe

Good luck. And only in 0.0. And since dictors don't have drones all the falcon has to do is cloak and float on out of the bubble  ------------

Yeah, sorry, those are the rigs I meant; it was late when I posted that, and i was just reading the cryptic descriptions on EFT. Your setup will work, but you have essentially no tank, and dropping the ECCM will get you back to square one, essentially. You have a 0% EM resistance with that setup, and like less than 6k EHP, which means a zealot is going to melt you before you can even align to warp.
Take my setup and swap the bad rig for the bay thruster, and you'll still have some tank.

2759 alpha damage... 181km lock + fire range.... 10 seconds to lock target and fire salvo and re-cloak without target knowing he's been locked or fired upon...
can have 3 to 4 volleys en-route to target before first volley hits.
... and can target paint from 126km to increase damage (paint target just before first salvo hits).
cheaper than a cerberus, higher survivability.

That could work aswell. There are sooo many ways.
Keep the fittings and suggests coming so those people who dunno what to do against ECM have a resource.

Missile sniping at extreme ranges is fail. Take an Eagle instead.

I would personally got for instant damage from something like a ferox, would have to be closer ofc but lets say a vulture fitted for it would get that damage there much faster. - Adaptation is not an excuse for lack of ballance! -

tried insta damage but the falcon pilot either warps out or jams you back. Eagle maaaybe since those things can get really ridiculous ranges :P
but... then again, Id think the eagle would be one of the things the falcon would be jamming to begin with.
The little bomber can fire/cloak/fire/cloak with that passive targetter and has a good chance of panicking the falcon out.
