One of the fighting doctrines our corp uses is called "Rogue Drones." Based off of an NPC type you can meet in missions, it is centered around relatively inexpensive, throwaway Tech I combat frigates. Backing them are a couple of Tech I Logistics cruisers (remote repair, in this case for shields).
Depending on what sort of opposition they run into, they can typically hit "above their weight," especially since Tech I frigates are not typically regarded as much of a threat. Here's a relatively short video to show them in action.
