Are you on a mission, and if so which one?
You could use your afterburner and take them one at a time. Otherwise get some dospect, and/or escorts
Opalius said it all: get some armor and some afterburners. As soon as you jump in, turn away from the center of the system, and burn away. Fuel scoops help with this, as you can eventually jump out once you're done. The best way to deal with this problem is to run away.

I THINK ITS PART OF THE zachit thing, but its happened on 3 different missions.
(a ue mission and a miru 1(after tedting there sensor in the nebula))
i have an after burner but i cant get armour anywhere and i keep running out of fuel before i can kill them all.
i feel like a sitting duck!

Ouch, if you´re on the "Rock" mission, I think you need a better ship and a couple of escorts. Cloaking wouldn´t be bad either.

Also crescent warships? You might be doing all these missions a bit to early.
Put them on a hold, and complete the UE objektive and perhaps one of the strands

You need to complete some more UE misions before you gain acces to Dospect

I know exactly how you feel...Believe me 
I've had this problem and in fact sometimes I still have it. Get the accel. and top speed upgrades and an afterburner, like they said. If you had a plasma cannon from the Igazra or the phase beam from the Zidagar then they might help. You might also wanna get something other than the phase cannons. Or perhaps you could just a new ship 
I dont think escorts will help much becaue they cant really keep up with you and the crescent ships.
------------------
Opalius hit upon a good idea that I use often: tactical cloaking.
If you can steer clear of enemy fire, activate your cloaking device and the enemy stops in his tracks until you reveal yourself again or until you get hit by stray weapons fired before you activated your cloak. Needless to say, you should steer clear of battles between other ships because their crossfire could hit you and render you visible again.
Anyway, I like to cloak myself and pull up right behind an enemy as he sits and waits. Then I simultaneously hit the buttons to uncloak and to fire my weapons. As soon as the enemy gets his bearings, I run and cloak myself again. Repeat as many times as necessary.
Is it low-down, dirty and underhanded? Perhaps, but it works with practice. 
i was running a lazira with a cloaing device 4 phase turrets afterburner speed thrust and rsc upgrades 4 shield enhacers a nebula sensor upgrade and a sad launcher and just getting whooped.
alas its acadenic now as ive accidentally wiped over my pilot. (Ł@^*!!!!)

Just check the UE planets around, there must be some more missions regarding Paaren. It could also be that it´s your combat rating which is preventing you from getting the "final" Paaren mission
I disagree with tactical cloaking. Maybe it's because I run an Igazra most of the time, but no matter how powerful my armor is, my shields are also a significant defense. On a fully-upgraded Igazra, the shields are nothing to sneeze at. Cloaking strips me of probably about 1/3 of my defense against Strand opponents. Not to mention it drains fuel, taking away the distance one might be able to put between the ship and the attackers without taking down the shields. Don't think this post makes much sense, but I know what I'm trying to say.

All you have to do is get some turrets. Phaze turrets are good. then just stay out from in front of them. Becase the fighters only shoot streight. SADs are good as well, If you have a lot of money.
