The biggest difference is sheer speed. While convoys amble along at a pace that's perfect for an ambush, TF's speed along at 30 plus knots - making them very hard to catch.

Often by the time you arrive in their projected path they'll already have whizzed by leaving you and your capital ship dreams in their wake.

If you intend to get in front of them you'll have to get a good jump and be close enough during the initial contact report. No easy task mind you, unless of course you use a mod like GWX SpySat which both tracks and updates their position periodically. That way you know where they went and how far you've been left behind.
