I would say Tigershark, but it has heat seeking missiles and rocket pods. I LOVE heat seeking missiles in Prophecy/SO. Give me a ship with nothing but heatseekers, dumbfires, and mass drivers/tachyons, and I'll give you a lot of alien space debris.
I'd have to say the Shrike is really average. It has short effective range with full guns, doesn't do enough damage with the dual particle cannons to be worthwhile at range (especially with their mount points), isn't really heavily shielded, armored, or fast, has one laser turret, a few missiles, a few torpedoes, a few mines, and a stormfire for some long range fire as long as you have ammunition.
