Lesson 1: Which Ship?
They might all look alike (stats-wise), but each ship is unique in its own way. The VHF class is used to counter all other Fighter classes and Bombers. They have the largest powercore, can mount more advanced weapons, can take more punishment and are only slightly less agile than the Heavy Fighter class. It is strongly advised to not only look at their stats or price, but also take heed of the Roleplay behind them. Each has its own purpose, so choosing one only for PvP and ignoring their original use might not end up the way you planned. Also notice some ships have valuable info under "Handling" and it should give you the general idea of their strenghts and weaknesses.

Lesson 2: The Loadout
The Equipment you choose is very important. Other than being available to your faction, the weapons and armor have to be top-notch if you want to win with relative ease.
Getting the best armor upgrade should be one of your first goals. The Armor Upgrade MK VIII fortifies your hull 2.5 times and costs 15,250,000 credits. The good thing is, it can be purchased in all Guard Systems.
