Shooting certain capitals in rather niche situations.
But that's pretty much true for all precision missiles, the stats are weird in that they are made to hit faster targets but normally go slower than standard missiles meaning they'll never catch their target.

Hitting subcaps. With proper TP & Web Support, Phoenixes can apply damage on battleships for example, in the range of 20k Alpha per volley, without having to refit for HAW weaponry. Granted, the volley difference is rather small, but it does help in getting about 5-15% more DPS over faction cruises on subcaps. (Example volley is on a Skirmish linked AB Typhoon, with 3x Web and 3x TP applied)

I hate to break it to you but I couldn't even cause 0.1% damage to a sitting still marauder on SiSi with them. The explosion radius of 8km with crash and a guidance computer did zero for me.
