The way that me and my friends approach skyguards if we choose to is that we all have skyguards, except maybe one guy in our empires MBT to defend us against surprises from the ground. That makes about 3-5 skyguards, maybe more occasionally. That way, any air targets will be lucky if they can hit us without losing most of their health. Basically, it results in an easy kill or the fighter gets out of there.

This is reinforced by the fact that I'm usually a fighter pilot, its where all my certs go, and fighters are valuable. I will prefer to leave the area to repair over engaging a skyguard and potentially losing my craft. I just wait for it to attack another fighter and kill it while it's distracted :D
