I find the problem with scouts right now is that they are a PITA to kill. You can sneak up on a supply and almost murder it with one blast but the same one blast barely touches a scout.
Now supplies are alot bigger then a scout but can't last as long? Something wrong there.

Supple carries lot of ammo, fuel, Etc, etc, to supply other ships, it make sense to me

tracking by sound is sort of useless in noise caused by star, gates, sensors, maybe interdictors, own engines or even battle sounds ....
not to mention for aiming it's waste of time unless the Kluth ship is moving sub 5gu speed

Scouts are easy to kill, they need to get within laser range to kill anyway. The PITA part comes when they can jump away and jump back in 7 seconds.

Sounds got removed, you can no longer track them by sound. And when sound was there, it was the most effective way of tracking. You just have to know how to do it.

Which is the best way to fly the scout  ejump and immediately cancel it after, u get about 1500-2000gu away from a luth alpha.. Just ask Piotr, I was annoying the hell out of them when I was using an eccm-antisensor scout to help out the fleet
Though the beacons tend to get bugged and I tend to have to scrap scouts if i run out of beacons(reloading them usually doesnt help)
