Cougar vs Eclipse

[Ursus]

Trying to decide which of the Gallic bombers would be better for lawful rampaging in the Taus. The Eclipse is a 2+1 superheavy while Cougar is 1+1 very heavy. I was expecting the Cougar to be medium bomber but it is actually very close in stats to the Eclipse. In fact, the Order Sekhmet bomber is the only 1+1 that's heavier than the Cougar, and the Eclipse is the next step up from that, so they are very close in stats.

I assume GRN faction prefers the Cougar but for indy purposes the Eclipse might be better since it can mount SNAC+Nova+CD and solo some of the caps in the Taus. My guess is that the Cougar may be a little more agile but its not agile enough to make a difference. I cant see bothering to have both of them since you dont gain enough from the Cougar to justify having it.

Wondering what others have decided here.
