I'm also going to assume you want to be able to efficiently steal targets, and I can at least say that it's more than just using missile speed parts, (that doesn't mean you SHOULDN'T use mssl. speed parts, just use more things with that.) such as:

1. Faster aircraft/Engine parts : If you can reduce the time it takes for your aircraft to arrive at a target, then that's half the battle right there.

2. HVAA / TLS : Both of these weapons take a very short time to arrive at the target and cause damage, but they both have drawbacks; the TLS cannot do sufficient damage to destroy a target quickly unless you're using it in long ranges, and the HVAA can only lock on to air targets; it would be wise to use these weapons only when necessary

3. Actually hit your targets : This may seem dumb, but if you can ensure that your weapons will hit the target, you can save time from waiting for your weapons to reload and then trying to hit the target again.

4. Do more damage : ties in to 3, this can also save time from reloading. You can achieve this by upgrading your aircraft, your special weaponry (in most cases), or using parts that increase damage.

5. Lock on Datalink / Lock on parts : Lets you lock on to targets faster, this is really helpful if you have a good trigger finger to benefit from faster lock ons, but it might seem useless if you don't.

And that's all I can think of. Hopefully Google Translate doesn't jack up the entirety of this message D:
