Entry-Level Interceptor Hunting

Looking for opinions. I've just unlocked a few guardian items (Lance fighter, gauss cannons in both sizes, large shard cannon turret). Before going to the guardian site I spent a few days casually hunting scouts in my Cutter with AX multicannon turrets, and I'm looking to get into the good stuff.

I see that the meta builds for interceptor hunting are Chieftains and Krait IIs, and I own both of those ships but I don't especially want to use either of them for this. My Krait is my main bounty hunting ship and I'd rather not refit it for xeno hunting, but I still really want a fighter to keep me company so that rules out the Chieftain (which was stripped for parts anyway when I bought the MkII). I'm thinking of buying and outfitting a Crusader so I can have the Chieftain experience without losing the fighter. I can't see anyone recommending that this is a good idea, but for cyclopses I'm really hoping it'll work. I know it's not as quick as the Chieftain, but I read that it's still quicker than the MkII.

Any experts care to enlighten me about whether this is worth trying?
