Any new manticore fits after Inferno? Especially any made for null-sec dead space complexes?

Just trained up to a Buzzard, having fun joy-riding around null. I find a lot of great sites after scanning them down. Only problem is that my ship has no offensive capabilities. Would a stealth bomber be able to clear some of these sites? A black-ops is still at least 3 months away just for the ship.

Even if a Manticore can't do the sites, could you still post a decent fit for one? Feeling a bit vulnerable out here with no weapons.

A Manticore's going to have trouble applying damage to anything smaller than a battleship, and will die to pretty much anything that can hit it. They're really not meant for PVE.

I'd suggest going for a cloaky T3 if you want to run nullsec exploration sites in unfriendly sov or NPC null. The obvious choice of course would be a Tengu, but a Loki or a Legion would also do fine.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)
