XPZ Strategy/Tactics / Re: Extended Piratez general FAQ/Strategy Guide

On my latest save ninjas decided to setup their base right next to my starting base. Soon enough they started expanding and by the 4th mini base they setup up I figured I should probably start taking them out since flying out to missions unmolested was starting to become a hassle.
At my tech level I was able to take out all the ninja forces with relative ease except for the two 2x2 chaingun turrets. I've tried handheld recoil less rockets, rocket launchers with anti tank rockets, and the quad launcher with fire ammo. These all seem to damage them but it usually takes 4-5 shots before they go down and the person firing the rocket usually ends up dying from the reaction fire.
The safest way I've found to deal with them is hope that my craft lands on the opposite side so I can setup mortars and bomb them from a distance.
However I don't think relying on my craft landing in the right place is a sound strategy.
I'm just curious if I should wait until I get something like a tank before taking these bases down or if I'm missing some anti turret weapon.
TLDR: Would like some advice with dealing with the 2x2 chaingun turrets in ninja bases
