Where are EITC frigates?

I must've sunk Corvettes there dozens of times for the various quests. Your best bet is to hit them initially with a broadside from behind. They can turn fairly quickly, however, so do your best to avoid their broadsides.

This seems to be the safest/easiest place to get them. They spawn over and over there.. just basically park your ship by that area.. and it practically comes right to you over and over. There are a few bigger ships that can bother you if you stray too much away from the spawning area.
