Get in close, hopefully undetected, use the high speed to avoid any point defense (can't really escape res 1 actives that good ), nail them with the microwaves and buzz out. Those strikes are then followed by another FAC, armed with box launchers and large, slow, short range, armored (against CIWS) missiles/torpedos, to obliterate the "blinded" ships with their massive size 36+ warheads. Or alternatively, by a boarding vessel. I had quite a few successful attacks like this. Obviously, the bigger the enemy fleet, the harder it is to pull off, because there's more sensors going around, that can protect any crippled ships.
