C'mon people! Fire Prisms FTW!
For 170 points you can get a fast skimmer with a Strength 5 AP 4 large blast or a Strength 9 AP 2 small blast weapon, that can move 12 inches (and so be immune to penetrating hits) with no drawbacks (with Vectored Engines you don't become destroyed if you are immobolised). Also, you force your opponent to roll 2 dice on the damage table and select the lowest, and on the glancing hit table it means you aren't going to take much damage even from a meltagun or a lascannon.
Fire Prisms all the way!
