These are not very useful in PvP. They have very low sensor strength, making them very easy to jam, and their active-tanking abilities are less useful in PvP, which usually favours buffer tanks. The Paladin and Kronos's webbing bonuses might be useful, but Blood Raider and Serpentis ships get similarly effective webbing bonuses and cost less (even though they're pirate ships).
