With a squadron filled out with generic clones, you definitely want to find some points to spare to upgrade the 212th to Warthog. His ability is - more likely than not - an absolute gamechanger when facing aces who can no longer engage your damaged ships face-to-face on the assumption of performing an init-kill.

Or Wolfpack somewhere, if you want them to be able to lock someone early and pass the lock around using sync console to fire these torpedoes.

Yeah. Agile Gunner isn't going to be a huge value on the LAAT. Nice, but nothing super special.

Wolfpack really enables those Torpedoes. Cutting Agile Gunner, maybe dropping 1 Proton to Plasma, and that'll be Warthog + Wolfpack.

What @Ryfterek said. Warthog is too much of a game changer to pass on his ability. Especially since it's not that expensive.

If you want to sling Torpedoes at low Initiative, you need Wolfpack to enable those locks. This is what I would run instead:
