The MAIN differences are:
TITAN-most armor, and higher gerbil rating. (power)
EAGLE-most maneuverable, the wings tend to fall off tho
SABRE-most firepower, has a USEFUL turret for once.
For best equipment, and JUST equipment, any one will do. All you need to buy is shields, and the weapons drop rather often when you wax lev.10 fighters. I guess what it all comes down to is what you have MOST problems fighting.
Personally, I befriend the corsairs, purely because they are active in most systems, and the outcasts have easier ships to kill.
