Greetings.

Though I already do low sec hacking and relic sites with a Cheetah, I want to expand my exploration efforts and do combat sites in angel and sansha space.

Which minmatar hulls (T3 aside) would be optimal for an all in one solution that fulfills all these requirements (hacking, data and combat) ?

If possible, I'd appreciate it if some fits or other guidelines were posted as well.

Thank you in advance for any and all answers.

You're trying to do too many things at once, you can't fit a ship for low sec combat sites while at the same time use 3 midslots for data/relic and be able to scan the sites.

You can refit using a mobile depot but that eats into space for ammo /loot.
The ideal ship can use a cov ops cloak, uses little ammo, has spare highs for probes and gets a bonus to scanning/ hacking.
The stratios works well for low as it does all these.
The ishtar is popular as with good scanning skills the scan bonus is not needed (although hacking will be a pain) but drones need no ammo.
T3 can refit modules and work very well.

The minmatar ship that does all you want doesn't exist.
Keep your scanning/hacking frig and continue as normal.
When you find a combat site you want to run then bookmark it, reship and run it.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85
