Need patcom help.

In the blockade runner mission, no matter what I do, a maurauder toasts a freighter. I set to defend, boom. I get my wing men to attack one and me the other, boom. Any help on the best tactics here? BTW I found a really good place for at least 4 terraforming equip at a time. In firefrost at some kwhuala advanced tech station in megatransporter pods. All 4 kinds too. Came by it, by mistake, but came back 3 more times and it was the same good loot.
