Fit an advanced or prototype railgun- the higher the tier, the longer the range (no need for anything special about it besides tier- a basic advanced light railgun is more useful than anything like the compressed ones), whether it's gallente or caldari doesn't really matter, but you might want to use a gallente one, since it stands more of a chance against hybrid turrets.
other than that, just be sneaky and fire in bursts (keep holding down the trigger after the first shot, and it'll follow up with a few more- heat management is key!) |

I've done it before. Took a good chunk out of a tank's shields before an Aver finished it off, and I destroyed a blaster installation that was pinning down my team |

Or LAV with 3 forge guns hit the HAV from behind to get it stck and all forge at once or thrown AV nades aswell
But in general another tank is better but with forge guns and swarms as support, every tank ive lost so far has been to another tank but with at least 2 more forge guns and maybe a swarm launcher tossed in for good luck This is the rare situation where missile launchers aren't the best choice for a turret |

Blasters or Railgun - preferably Railgun - would be the best option. And neither option is particularly good.
Anyone tried a BPO-modded Baloch Starter Fit (free Blaster) with relevant skills added for the damage? Might be viable - at least against low-tier HAVs. The best that would be good for is suicide attacks; plus, have you ever tried taking out a starter fit LAV with a BPO blaster? Even with that it takes long. Also, if you want to attack from a long range (which isn't neccessary), accelerated missiles are the only option- small railguns have the same range, if not slightly longer than large blasters.
Edit: as far as skills, I have level 3 hybrid turret operation atm, but I don't think it makes much of a difference |
