Yea, the YV-666 and Lambda have both lost their roles. Which is sad, as Lambda is one of those iconic ships that I'd love to see on the table more often.

Z-95 is still useful for fielding missiles on the cheap; you can send out a basic Z-95 for the same price as a naked a-wing, if not cheaper. After that they act as decent 12- or 16-point blockers. Though I still agree, I don't see them much these days. Even with a missile they're not especially scary ships on their own, and swarms are not well-rewarded right now.
