Best space set for jem'hadar recon ship

I recently was able to purchase a jem'hadar recon ship from the exchange. I've been thinking of 3 space sets in particular, jem'hadar, iconian, or delta alliance. I plan to upgrade which ever space set I choose to mk 14 URs. Just wanted to know what people thought about these space sets, and also if there is a space set I didn't mention that you would like to recommend. Thanks in advance.

if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.
Sometimes the benefits of slotting all 3/4 items in a set are such that you are forced to sacrifice an ability that would better serve your needs - to draw an analogue imagine you are a soldier in the field and have been issued with a basic rifle with "iron-sights", one day you find a weapon with a sniper scope but you don't have access to the proper ammo. Is the discovered weapon useless? or can you salvage the sight and adapt your own weapon to use it? Consider a WW2 tommy-gun with a sniper scope - maybe not as accurate as the intended sniper rifle but more accurate than the standard issue weapon.
I see a lot of team benefits, that usually dilutes personal benefits.
I run the Adapted engines and Deflector with the Capx4 shield and the Obelisk Subspace Rift Warp Core.
Bio-neural gel pack from Delta Rep, Terran Warp Core and Terran Deflector are also worth looking at.
The Iconian Rep weapons are good to pop in an antiproton build as they give a chance to stack some temporary hit points on your ship, although my own pref is to buy the CritD and CritH versions from the store rather than using the advanced versions from the set which have Acc as standard - if you take them to MkXIV Epic you get an [Ac/Dmg] proc anyway and my own thinking is that I would rather have the critcal chance and/or crit severity proc at basic out the box standard.
I'll post some other gear that fits well with these later, once I have been back in-game to have a look at my main - I'm running the 31stC temporal ships to get the traits at present so most of my usual consoles are sitting on a different ship just now
Edit - My Presidio Command Battlecruiser has the following:
Iconian Deflector
Romulan Advanced Prototype Impulse Engines
Terran Task Force Warp Core
Reman Prototype Covariant Shields (gives the 2-part bonus with the Romulan Impulse Engine) - though I have the Terran shield in the visual slot so it doesn't look like every other ship using the Reman shield.
Regenerative Integrity Field (Command Set - from Kobali cruiser(?)
Tachyokinetic Convertor (Lobi store)
Assimilated Module (Omega Rep)
Bioneural Infusion Circuits (Elachi Silent Enemy (?) Set - Lobi store)
M6 Computer (from C-store Temporal Escort)
Temporal Disentanglement Suite (Krenim set - mission reward)
Bio Neural Gel Pack (Delta Rep)
Tac- Vulnerability Locator x4 (Fleet Spire)
This gives a decent boost to the power levels allowing me to run both weapons and Aux high but still have half-decent shield and engine levels. Additionaly the 4 tac consoles provide a handy boost to damage plus better crit chance. The other console provide a decent mix of boosts across the board. Not a world beater - will get 40-45k dps on a good day but this is the ship I always seem to go back to once I have reached the Tier V trait with others.
Gz on your ship by the way. I fly the JH Strike Ship ever since it came out and love it. I tried a few different gear constellations on it and wasted quite a bit of Dil on upgrades. I ended up with ICO set which rules them all.
Here is my current setup if interested:

Whatever you do pls wait for the next upgrade weekend to cut the involved dil costs roughly in half. I often prepare for those weekends by manufacturing hundreds of superior upgrade techs in advance and having them at the ready in the bank.
If one upgrades only during those weekends I estimate the overall cost for an all epic space build is around 2-2,5 million dil.
See it as long term goal. Your approach to ask what to upgrade and what not to is a good one.

But I did recommend the adapted set and the 4 cap shield setup for you.
But Iconian d/i/wc/s is very sound for most energy weapon based builds.
I think the 4xcap shield comes from the research tab.
All those others give you resistances to specific damages.
Regenerate is way too slow on shields thats why you should always go with Covariant shields.
