2 complex shield hardeners
1 complex light shield booster.
1 standard small missile launcher.
It works well, I cycle my hardeners while in battle, and only leave if they are both about to be exhausted, or my shields are being overwhelmed. Engagement s are short because of it, but at least rail turrets don't hit as hard as they could without my hardeners on.

Doesn't a basic, or maybe it's an enhanced, heavy shield extender provide as much benefit as one complex shield hardener and you don't have to cycle it? With the heavy extender I can generally absorb two railgun hits with time to activate the afterburner and bug out.
I've yet to fit a shield booster on my Python.

Heavy extenders are hard to fit on a Python, but yes, they do. With an extender, a light booster and a hardened should keep you alive, you just have to activate it quickly

Just got into ADS, so I'm saving for missiles ATM. Current fit:
1 x Enhanced Shield Booster
1 x Enhanced Shield Hardener
1 x Basic Missile Damage Mod
1 x Enhanced PG Upgrade
1 x Militia Missile Launcher (I can use advanced rail turrets, but militia missiles have superior damage, splash damage, and a larger AOE, plus get the bonuses from the 1 level I have in the Python skill--am I missing something?)
Eventually I want to swap out the militia missiles for real ones, and hopefully get my core skills good enough to fit a small, basic armor repper, if possible.
My other dropsuit is a Python.

Currently trying this
1 adv scanner
1 heavy pro extender
1 pro hardener or booster
1 PG upgrade
1 adv missile turret.
I will probably try the militia turret. never checked the stats to be honest.
Also, 2 hardener make sense, I will try that as well.
I do have some issue still with ground railgun turret and tanks some time, for some reason, it happened most of the time on the same map, when I fly over a specific building...[scratch head] |

Umm, I don't think a heavy extender even compares to a hardener. All that one extender does is prolong your death by ONE shot. Whereas the hardener(s) provide a much better buffer, not just to rail fire, but AV fire. AV is pretty much useless against a hardened dropship, making your only real worry, rail tanks.

Once im on deck hammering ppl with a hardener on if i get hit AB is activated and i fly away as fast as possible

Try swapping the Booster for an Afterburner. You may feel like you're losing tanking potential, but accelerating that rapidly has saved me from many deaths.
