Are there any ships that meet the following criteria?

PVE
High DPS
Missile boat
High resist armor tank (will have logi support so no need for active tank)

If there are does anyone have any fits?

Take a look at HAM Legion or Sacrilege. Both are super short range though and chasing down the NPC gets old really quickly.

Legion. My fits are mainly pvp oriented, I don't have a PVE fit on-hand. It's pretty self-evident to fit, though.

PS. Yes it does make gank fitted Vindicators look like little school girls in Incursions and is probably the best heavy hitter at medium range in the game. Smile

Why specifically Armor Tank?

Most high DPS fits use the lows for damage mods, you'd be better off going shield tank, that way your damage mods and tank mods aren't competing for the same slots.

It's just a stopgap so I can help the armour gang with the skills I have (missiles) before I get my turret skills together.

Typhoon Fleet Issue is what you're looking for. Fit right it has more DPS than a Vindi and the added bonus of damage selection.

Full gank, no tank the DPS is still below the Vindi (just) which has a tank at the same time.

I mean it will do insane DPS about 2k full gank, but Vindi does a little more without going full gank (aka no DDA's)

Don't fit like that, but the navy phoon should be the best avaiable. Full Sentries, faction-buffer (so you can go with two hardeners as *tank*) and all the other slots free for dmg and tracking. I'd rather fill the utilityhighs with 2 large armor-RR and dump the dedicated logistics. So you could have two phoons with 900+ dps applied filling the logirole, and use everyone else in Oracles :3

Oh I am sorry for suggesting a setup that is actually in practical use(yes on grid and fairly welcome) because it is pretty good compared to the other high end options(in gangs fitted for max dps and application, full of NMs, Paladins, Vindis, Machs).

In the end it is just my opinion as FC that gives that fit out as suggestion as high skilled missile option, puts the hulls on grid and I am currently looking for more missile pilots that can fly it well, not less.

But yeah go on about how to fit phoons and set up fleets, EvE could use a 2. FC that utilizes missile hulls in armor fleets.
