Back to attanni days! IG can pass calc to anyone, 4lom can pass a calc to anyone. So at range 1, Guri could have a lock (setup already), do an evade action with DG, get a focus with her ability, and be passed two calc tokens :) If 4lom or IG getting focused down, they get two calcs with BRAIN ability, and be passed another calc token.

Love the premise.

I don't know that I like Debris Gambit and 2e evades on 4-LOM, since he's only a 1-agility ship. On top of that, the Mist Hunter title gives him a barrel roll for the same 2 point cost. Personally, I'd rather have a white barrel roll than a sometimes-white Evade. Particularly since the G-1A has Jam, and possibly a few calculate tokens to spend, so the Evade would only be helpful on blanks. Once into the scrum and likely close to asteroids, I think a Jam action is probably better. Deleting a focus token off an enemy ship will statistically prevent more damage than gaining an Evade token. A 4-dice attack which loses the focus statistically loses 1 damage. A 2e Evade token only prevents 5/8ths of a damage on 1 green die, since you can roll a natural squiggle.

Liking the concept, some of my favourite pilots/ships there.

I'd probably drop DG on 4-LOM and upgrade to collision detector on IG so you can play both him and Guri close to obstacles. Use 4-lom as bait, stress/jam if they come near. Take advantage with maximum damage Guri the turn after.
