I only use Eagle because it brings back some old memories.
As for the ship itself,I am often told to replace the ship with something else because it is considered the worst one.

Not true.Back on vanilla servers, everyone used/uses Eagle.Some prefer Titan, or Hammerhead.
But Eagle was one of the best ships.On vanilla , almost everyone used combination of 2 Tizonas and 2/2 Nomad Blasters/Cannons.The only thing that would determine the winner in a 1vs1 fight was skill.
As for the Kusari tech, their VHF, Chimaera is overpowered.Everything the size of Chimaera, belonging to VHF class on this server IS overpowered.
Everything comes to the pilot.A pro player on a Wraith , can also be the worst one on the Black Dragon.

To be perfectly fair, almost all VHF-ified vanilla Heavy Fighters are relatively small. The Chimaera is an extreme, but the Wraith, Guardian and Templar are all quite small if you compare them to the vanilla VHFs (Sabre, Titan, Eagle).
Although it's not going to happen, it would've been nice to see some more consistency in the size of VHFs. The vanilla game has them all as fairly big ships, although the Titan and Sabre both have "interesting" hitboxes that compensate for their size (although the shields on all three are fairly easy to hit given the overall size of the model).

Heavy fighters vs Very Heavy Fighters. There is the difference. The Vanilla VHFs were Sabre,Titan,Eagle and Hammerhead. The others were heavy fighters hence they fit their size perfectly.
It is Disco fail for taking the HFs and buff them to VHFs.
Eagle was not OP. It could have its old stats with a bit less bots bats and a chunk less hull. So the ship would fit even more its role in dueling where it was dominating while failing badly in group fights.
Each ship is underpowered and OP at the same time depending on the situation. Eagle is bombersize big from side and have huge front profile as well, it was fast indeed but with paper-thin hull bots, core and huge size to compensate, now it just sux.
Detale who are you btw?
