The aggro doesn't get too bad until the last spawn, if you are still working on the last group the dps gets fairly high. Even so your normal Guristas fit should be ok.
-all my battleships were ursurpers,
-all the spawns were about 30-40km,
-the orientation of the platforms consisted of 2 closer and 2 farther from warp in, i approached the courier on my right first and all the spawns came after that the timing of each i am uncertain sorry (but i did shoot said courier about 30 seconds before i got close and it dissapeared just as a test, can someone confirm if you only have to shoot this one?)
-that 3rd spawn came as 2 for me, the following spawn was about a minute after that one so i assume they are different, it was half of those ships mentioned :so 2x elite cruisers, 2x battlecruisers and 3x battlehips in each.
so could someone confirm the courier i mentioned please, ill go ahead and put in 30-40km spawn range and /ursurper, oh i will also leave the final spawn to be confirmed also, thank you for your time. :D
forgot to say that was the *closest* right courier that was the trigger for me.
3x Mercenary Overlord
3x Mercenary Wingman
4x Pithis Assassin
4x Dire Pithi Wrecker

Flew to the first NPC and nothing happened. Flew to the 2nd and the GF walked in wanting a hand with her laptop so i hit warp and walk out... 20 minutes later i come back.
Sitting safely at the station, i warp back to the mission. I'm greeted with a message about "the drugs transport got chicken and run off".
Spawn 1 is waiting for me at the beacon.
Spawn 1
3 Pith Massacrer 1.16 mil
4 Dire Pithi Destructor 27k
Spawn 2 - arrived about 3 minutes after i started attacking spawn 1.
3 Pith Massacrer 1.16mil
3 Pithatis Executor 131k
After killing the last Massacrer spawn 3 arrived (it was the last ship left so no idea if it's a trigger), no delay. About 3 minutes into the fight spawn 4 joined in.
Spawn 3
4 Pithatis revolter 153k
4 Pith Massacrer 1.16mil
Spawn 4
3 Pith Massacrer 1.16mil
3 Dire Pith inferno 258k
At no point was i webbed or scrambled, although i imagine it's quite possible.
Trigger for final wave was the last Pith Massacrer.
