In a sustained battle, your tank and DPS is comparably weak versus equivalent doctrines such as Feroxes, so if you do not have the ships to volley opponents off the grid quickly, then skirmish tactics become the order of the day. Try to pick off smaller, weaker support ships in the enemy comp without fully committing to a fight, potentially weakening them for a full on assault, or alternatively just satisfying yourself with these harassment tactics

For the Uni, while fleets of 50+ is achievable for special events, 20-30 is your usual roaming fleet size, so FCC Hurricanes for the Uni are unlikely to be picking fights with other Battlecruiser fleets. Instead they can be used to devastate smaller ships. Fleets of T1 Cruisers such as Rail Moas or Caracals or T3 Destroyers such as Jackdaws, are good targets for a fleet such as this

Having said this, while your tank and sustained DPS may be lacking, if you have a numbers or tactical advantage, then you can still successfully fight a pitched battle, particularly with sufficient logistics support, albeit the Hurricanes do not shine in such an engagement
