How to use in your fleet

Anti-armors are of most benefit when fighting heavier crafts and popping guardposts. Their stats suggests that players treat them as weak long-range Fighters, so kiting would extend their short survival time. Even so, attrition rates will be high due to very low HP - they will be one-shot by Missile Frigates.

Most leading ships in exogalactic strikeforces fall into one of the bonus categories, so anti-armors can help bring down the leading ships and scatter their followers.

How to counter when in the AI fleet

In small-numbers anti-armor ships do not pose significant danger. If the AI unlocks anti-armor ships and is using them effectively, however, strongly consider counter-missile turrets. Nullifying both these and Missile Frigates will help your defense tremendously.

Be aware that your close-combat Spirecraft and hardened force fields have heavy hulls, which will take extra damage.
