*'''[[K-Space]] [[ships]]'''
*'''[[W-Space]] [[ships]]'''

The [[Ship|ship]] classes can be broken down into a couple groups. Here are brief explanations of all the [[Ship|ship]] classes, in order of difficulty of flying in the group.

==[[Frigates]]==
*'''[[Frigate]]''' (aka '''frig''')- These are the ships everyone can fly starting out. They are cheap and good for [[tackling]] in [[PvP]] as well as fighting in faction warfare space. All pilots start in one, usually flying level 1 missions.

*'''[[Interceptor]]''' (aka '''inty''')- Purpose built tackling frigates, but paper thin, great for small gang support and most PvP operations. Not very useful for PvE purposes.

*'''[[Assault Ship]]''' (aka '''AF''')- High-resistance frigates, Assault Frigates are more durable than Interceptors and put out more damage. Mostly used as heavy hitting frigates for solo travels or for holding down targets for the fleet.

*'''[[Covert_Ops|Covert Ops]]''' (aka '''covops''' or '''bomber''')- A stealth frigate specializing in finding the enemy and providing intel. While providing valuable intelligence as a forward scout, Covert Ops ships also get bonuses to [[probes]], making them ideal for finding foreign ships and [[Exploration Guide|exploration]]. Also, they contain the subset of stealth bombers, capable of using [[Item_Database:Ammunition_&_Charges:Missiles:Torpedoes|torpedoes]] and [[Item_Database:Ship_Equipment:Turrets_&_Bays:Bomb_Launchers|bombs]] on a target.

*'''[[Electronic Attack Frigate]]''' (aka '''EAF''')- A relatively new Electronic Warfare specialist frigate, designed to provide quick support for small gangs at a low cost. Their small size makes them ideal for tackling and light [[EWAR]] support against larger targets.

==[[Destroyers]]==
*'''[[Destroyer]]''' (aka '''dessie''')- Destroyers are just a step up from frigates, ideal for killing other frigates. The eight high slots make it ideal for a lightweight [[salvaging]] ship.

*'''[[Interdictor]]''' (aka '''dictor''')- This [[Tech_2|tech 2]] destroyer is almost a requirement for [[0.0]] PvP operations. It's ability to produce a [[interdiction bubble]] is unique to this ship. Plus, it is ideal for killing frigates and small ships.

==[[Cruiser|Cruisers]]==
*'''[[Cruiser]]'''- Usually the first multi-million [[ISK|isk]] ship that pilots buy, the cruiser is the first step up most pilots take on their road to perfection. Used for cheap medium sized support and level 2 missions, these cruisers are usually just a stepping stone towards a more capable and expensive ship.

*'''[[Heavy Assault Ship]]''' (aka '''HAC''')- All HACs fill a unique role in the universe, having heavier armor and unique characteristics. These are ubiquitous in PvP, found alone, and in small and large gangs alike. They are often used for harder level 2 or 3 missions as well.

*'''[[Recon Ship]]''' (aka '''recon''')- Recons are tech 2 cruisers specialized for electronic warfare. Recons are divided into Combat Recons and Force Recons. Combat Recons possess greater damage potential and sturdier tanks, though they do not possess either type of cloaking bonus. Force Recons are capable of warping [[cloaked]], these ships spend much of their time attacking other solo ships or calling in the cavalry with their bonus to [[cyno gen]] fuel usage. They are ideal for solo PvP.

*'''[[Logistic]]'''(aka '''logi''')- Logistic ships are tech 2 cruisers focused on one task, assisting other ships. While they have decent resistances, they are purpose built on giving other ships armor, shields, energy, or electronic subsystems support. Having one flying in a PvP or PvE gang is a force multiplier for defense purposes.
*'''[[Heavy Interdictor]]''' (aka '''Hictor''')- Essential for 0.0 defense, the Hictor can fit a [[Warp Disruption Field Generator]], causing ships warp drives to fail. They can be fitted with heavy tanks as well. When fitted with a [[script]], they can also generate a long-range infinite warp disruption beam, very useful in low sec operations.

*'''[[Strategic Cruisers]]''' (aka '''t3''') are cruisers built off Sleeper technology, as made available in the [[Apocrypha]] expansion. They were the first [[T3|T3]] cruisers, and support a fully modular structure, where players can mix and match in 5 different subcategories, changing available slots, shield/armor/structure strength and other vital characteristics. They are mostly comparable to Heavy Assault Ships. However, with the right subsystems fitted they can function as Recon Ships and even fit a [[Covert Ops Cloaking Device II|Covops Cloak]] .

==[[Battlecruisers]]==
*'''[[Battlecruiser]]''' (aka '''BC''')- Battlecruisers are the next step up in a pilot's development life. They are able to take more punishment and put out more damage than a cruiser. They are heavily used in PvP, as they are half the price of a battleship. But they are also used quite heavily in PvE, as they breeze through Level 3 missions, along with doing some Level 4's.

*'''[[Command Ship]]''' (aka '''CS''')- Command ships are the tech 2 version of the battlecruiser, the primary purpose being providing gang warfare links to other in their fleet. However, they can also have some of the heaviest tanks and put out heavy damage. They are primarily a support craft, but their special abilities are also useful to a fleet. They are also commonly seen in PvE Level 4 and Level 5 missions, sometimes assisting other ships in completing the mission.

==[[Battleships]]==
*'''[[Battleship]]''' (aka '''BS''')- The Battleship is the goal of all newbie pilots out there, and the core of any successful fleet operation. Battleships are larger than all previous ships, are more capable, can produce more damage, and survive more damage. They are essential to PvP and the most common ship for PvE for Level 4 and 5 missions. While they are actually easy to get into, they take a long time to fly well. If you buy one and fly it in combat, you will lose it eventually. They are the test between a new pilot and an experienced pilot.

*'''[[Marauder]]'''- The first Tech 2 battleship, the Marauder is the ultimate in focused damage dealing. Having special bonuses for it's weapons, it frees up high slots for other helpful modules like [[NOS]] and Tractor Beams. These are rarely seen in PvP due to their low sensor strength, allowing them to be jammed more easily than other battleships. However, they are very common in PvE Level 4 missions, many times as a salvage vehicle due to their extended tractor range.

*'''[[Black Op]]''' (aka '''BlOps''')- The second Tech 2 battleship, the Black Ops is designed to fulfill a covert role. While having slightly lower damage output and tanking ability of a battleship, they are the only non-capital ship which possesses their own short-range jump drive. In addition to their internal jump drive, they may fit a Covert Jump Portal Generator I module which opens a bridge that select ships may travel through. The type of ships which may utilize the covert jump bridge are those with a cloak bonus, either to movement or warping while cloaked (Jump Harmonics 2). Black Ops may lock on to normal Cynosural Fields which are used by Capital Ships, although they have the unique ability to lock on to special Covert Cynosural Fields opened from either Covert Ops vessels and Force Recon ships. These are not very common ships in the eve universe yet, but their purpose seem to be for stealth PvP operations in hostile territory, with the ability to bypass defensive camps.

==Industrial ships==
*'''[[Industrial Ship]]''' (aka '''indy''' or '''hauler''')- Industrial ships are needed by everyone, PvP and PvE pod pilots alike. If you are hauling loot or hauling ore, an indy will make your life easier by allowing you carry more, making for fewer trips. Almost every pilot out there is capable of flying one from time to time. They are core of industry, allowing [[pod pilot]]s to move vast amounts of goods from point to point. But remember that the cargo capacity comes with the price tag of being slow.

*'''[[Transport Ship]]'''- Transport ships are more capable tech 2 industrial ships. Having higher resistances, some are capable of fitting a covert ops cloak while others have a +2 warp strength. While they cannot all hold more than tech 1 industrials, they all give you a better chance against pirates looking to steal your hard earned cargo.

==ORE Ships==
*'''[[Mining Frigate]]''' - This category consists of one ship currently, the [[Venture]]. An entry level mining platform, this platform allows new pilots to get to grips with mining, while also allowing for operation in lower security space with it's built in warp stabilizer bonus and utility high slot. It is also the only ship currently available with a gas mining bonus, this mixed with its sizable ore bay makes it a great ship for new and older players alike.

*'''[[Mining Barge]]''' (aka '''barge''')- Mining is the start of the life cycle of most ships, giving pod pilots the base minerals to make modules and ships. Mining barges are capable of pulling large amounts of ore from asteroids, with a longer cycle time than frigate, cruiser or battleship mining. If you are mining in high sec, in a mission deadspace, or 0.0, a mining barge is the start of your mining career.

*'''[[Exhumer]]'''- Exhumers are tech 2 mining barges, allowing for greater mining potential. They have higher resistances, which give them the ability to survive pirate attack. Some specialize in [[ice mining]] while others have increased warp strength and specialize in [[mercoxit]] mining.

*'''[[ORE Industrial]]'''- This category consists of one ship currently, the [[Noctis]]. A loot and salvage expert. Boosting Tractor Beam and Salvager cycle time and Tractor Beam range and velocity.

*'''[[Industrial Command Ship]]'''- This category consists of one ship currently, the [[Orca]]. A mining support platform, the Orca is a bulk ore carrier, similar to a freighter, yet is much more suited for the rigors of mining than any freighter.

*'''[[Capital Industrial Ship]]'''- There is only one Cap Industrial right now, the [[Rorqual]]. It is a capital ship, and while not quite as capable as a carrier, it can fit capital modules and provide capital support for other ships. It is designed to be a mining support platform on a large scale. It can compress ore, allowing vast amounts of ore to be quickly moved to remote bases. As a capital ship it requires the use of cyno fields to move about.

==Capital Ships==
Capital ships (with the exception of the Freighter, the Jump Freighter and the Orca) cannot enter hisec and must move about through [[cyno fields]] in low and [[Null_Sec|null sec]].

*'''[[Freighter]]'''- Freighters are huge cargoholds with a warp drive engine. While not able to fit any modules or rigs, they are how the bulk of materials move in empire space. Capable of holding 30 times as much as regular Industrial ships, these are slow moving targets for any interested in piracy. Getting a freighter through 0.0 space is a true test of teamwork for a corporation or alliance.

*'''[[Jump Freighter]]''' (aka '''JF''')- Jump freighters are tech 2 freighters, having around a third the cargo capacity but having the ability to use [[cyno generators]] or [[jump bridges]] to move around low sec and 0.0. The ability to use star gates and cyno gens allows a jump freighter to easily transition between the safety of empire and beyond to the edges of the empires, dragging mass quantities of material with it.

*'''[[Dreadnought]]''' (aka '''Dread''')- Dreadnoughts are large gun ships, capable of surviving the most brutal of assaults and putting out more single target damage than any other ship. Capable of fitting a siege module, these ships can enter a 10 minute cycle time which makes them capable of putting out 6.25x as much damage and repair 2x as much, but unable to warp or receive help from other ships. These are the backbone of [[POS]] warfare and are critical for most capital ship takedowns. The first capital ships many pilots can fly.

*'''[[Carrier]]'''- Carriers are fairly common throughout the low- and null-sec. They are essential for logistics for 0.0 corporations, for support in remote and hostile locations, and commonly used for large scale mining operations as well. They are capable of fitting gang warfare modules, fighter drones, and triage modules. Their ship maintenance array allows them to transport other ships, up to and including battleships in size.

*'''[[Carrier|Supercarrier]]''' (formerly called '''motherships''' or '''moms''' now known as '''supers''')- Essentially scaled up carriers, supercarriers are less common than their smaller brethren and focused more towards combat. Like carriers they are capable of fitting gang warfare modules and fighter drones however they cannot fit a triage module. Additionally they are capable of deploying fighter bombers, drones specifically designed to destroy a capital ship in a short amount of time, and fitting a remote ECM burst, which allows them to remotely break the locks of groups of enemy ships. Like titans these ships are capable of withstanding amazing amounts of damage.

*'''[[Titan]]'''- Titans are currently the top end of ships that a [[pod pilot]] can fly. They are big and slow, but capable of withstanding amazing damage. They can fit a [[doomsday device]] that is capable of destroying a capital ship in one shot. These are the most expensive ships in eve, and usually fitted with the most expensive faction, deadspace and officer modules as well.

==Other==
*[[Rookie Ship]]- The starting ship for every pod pilot out there, this is the absolute worst ship to be flying at all times. Slow, with a small hold, minimal armaments, and no defenses, this is the ship of the zero SP alt. The only plus to these ships is that they are free in the case of a ship loss.

*[[Shuttle]]- The smallest flyable ship, the shuttle is not to be overlooked for its quick alignment, its innate speed, miniscule cost, and tiny cargo capacity. Great for going places while leaving your more useful ships behind.

*[[Miscellaneous]] - Limited edition and discontinued ships that do not fit into other categories.

Also, they contain the subset of [[stealth bombers]], capable of putting large amounts of [[cruise missiles]] on a target.
*'''[[Electronic Attack Frigate]]''' (aka [[EAF]])- A relatively new [[Electronic Warfare]] specialist [[Frigate|frigate]], designed to provide quick support for small gangs at a low cost. Their small size makes them ideal for [[tackling]] and light [[EWAR]] support against larger targets.

==[[Capital Ships]]==
*'''[[Dreadnought]]''' (aka [[Dread]])- Dreadnoughts are large gun [[Ships|ships]], capable of surviving the most brutal of assaults and putting out more single target [[Damage|damage]] than any other [[Ship|ship]]. Capable of running a [[siege module]], these [[Ships|ships]] enter a 10 minute cycle time which makes them capable of putting out 6.25x as much [[Damage|damage]] and repair 2x as much, but are unable to warp or receive help from other [[Ships|ships]] during this time. These are the backbone of [[POS]] warfare and are critical for most [[Capital_ship|capital ship]] takedowns. Capital [[Ships|ships]] cannot enter empire and must move about through [[cyno fields]] in low and [[Null_Sec|null sec]].
the first capital [[Ships|ships]] many pilots can fly.
*'''[[Carrier]]''' (some are [[Mom]])- There are two types of carriers, carriers and [[Motherships|motherships]]. The smaller carriers are common throughout the eve universe. They are essential for logistics for 0.0 corporations, for support in remote and hostile locations, and commonly used for large scale [[Mining|mining]] operations as well. They are capable of fitting [[gang warfare]] modules, [[fighter]] drones, and [[triage]] modules. [[Motherships|Motherships]] are less common in the Eve universe, but are capable of fitting a [[Clone Vat Bay]], allowing pilots to come support the [[Mothership|mothership]] in battle.
*'''[[Titan]]'''- Titans are currently the top end of [[Ships|ships]] that a [[pod pilot]] can fly. They are big and slow, but capable of withstanding amazing [[Damage|damage]]. They can fit a [[doomsday device]] that is capable of removing entire fleets in one shot. Only capitals and heavily tanked [[Ships|ships]] can survive one of these blasts. These are the most expensive [[Ships|ships]] in eve, and usually fitted with the most expensive faction modules as well.

==[[Ships|Ships]] of industry==
*'''[[Industrial Ship]]''' (aka [[indy]] or [[hauler]])- [[Industrial|Industrial]] [[Ships|ships]] are needed by everyone, [[PvP]] and [[PvE]] [[pod pilot]]s alike. If you are hauling loot or hauling ore, an [[Indy|indy]] will make your life easier by allowing you carry more, making for fewer trips.

*'''[[Mining Barge]]''' (aka [[barge]])- [[Mining]] is the start of the life cycle of most [[Ships|ships]], giving [[pod pilot]]s the base [[Minerals|minerals]] to make modules and [[Ships|ships]]. [[Mining barges]] are capable of pulling large amounts of ore from [[asteroids]], with a longer cycle time than [[Frigate|frigate]], [[Cruiser|cruiser]] or [[Battleship|battleship]] [[mining]]. If you are [[mining]] in [[high sec]], in a [[mission]] [[deadspace]], or [[0.0]], a [[mining barge]] is the start of your [[mining]] career.
*'''[[Transport Ship]]'''- Transport [[Ships|ships]] are more capable [[Tech_2|tech 2]] [[Industrial|industrial]] [[Ships|ships]]. Having higher resistances, some are capable of fitting a [[covert ops cloak]] while others have a +2 [[warp strength]]. While they cannot all hold more than tech 1 industrials, they all give you a better chance against [[pirates]] looking to steal your hard earned cargo.
*'''[[Exhumer]]'''- Exhumers are [[Tech_2|tech 2]] [[mining barges]], allowing for greater [[mining]] potential. They have higher resistances, which give them the ability to survive [[Pirate|pirate]] attack. Some specialize in [[ice mining]] while others have increased [[Warp_strength|warp strength]].
*'''[[Freighter]]'''- Freighters are huge cargoholds with a warp drive engine. While not able to fit a module, they are how the bulk of materials move in [[Empire_Space|empire space]]. Capable of holding 30x as much as regular [[Industrial|industrial]] [[Ships|ships]], these are slow moving targets for any interested in piracy. Getting a [[Freighter|freighter]] through 0.0 space is a true test of teamwork for a corporation or alliance.
*'''[[Jump Freighter]]'''- Jump freighters are [[Tech_2|tech 2]] freighters, having around 1/3rd the cargo capacity but having the ability to use [[cyno generators]] or [[jump bridges]] to move around [[low sec]] and [[0.0]]. The ability to use [[STAR|star]] gates and [[Cyno|cyno]] gens allows a jump [[Freighter|freighter]] to easily transition between the safety of empire and beyond to the edges of the empires, dragging mass quantities of material with it.
*'''[[Industrial Command Ship]]'''- This category consists of one [[Ship|ship]] currently, the [[Orca]]. A [[Mining|mining]] support platform, the [[Orca|Orca]] is new to the eve universe, and it's capabilities are still being learned.
*'''[[Capital Industrial Ship]]'''- There is only one Cap [[Industrial|Industrial]] right now, the [[Rorqual]]. It is a [[Capital_ship|capital ship]], and while not quite as capable as a [[Carrier|carrier]], it can fit capital modules and provide capital support for other [[Ships|ships]]. It is designed to be a [[Mining|mining]] support platform on a large scale. It also allows for [[compressed]] ore, allowing vast amounts of ore to be moved to remote bases. It requires the use of [[cyno]] fields to move about as well.

==Other==
*[[Rookie Ship]]- The starting [[Ship|ship]] for every [[pod pilot]] out there, this is the absolute worst [[Ship|ship]] to be flying at all times. Slow, with a small hold, minimal armaments, and no defenses, this is the [[Ship|ship]] of the zero [[Glossary|SP]] [[Glossary|alt]]. The only plus to these [[Ships|ships]] is that they are free in the case of a [[Ship|ship]] loss.
*[[Shuttle]]- The smallest flyable [[Ship|ship]], the [[Shuttle|shuttle]] is not to be overlooked for it's quick alignment, it's inate speed, and tiny cargo capacity. Great for ferrying around [[blueprints]] in [[low sec]].
*[[Miscellaneous]] - All of the faction [[Ships|ships]] that don't easily fit into the four [[Races|races]] are located in here.

 *'''[[Battleship]]''' The Battleship is the goal of all newbie pilots out there. Battleships are larger than all previous ships, are potentially more capable. They are one of the most common ships for PvE for Level 4 and 5 missions. While they are actually easy to get into, they take a long time to fly well.
-*'''[[Black Ops]]''' Black Ops are advanced battleships that use covert cynosural fields, specialized in operations behind enemy lines. While having slightly lower damage output and tanking ability of a battleship, they are the only non-capital ship which possesses their own short-range jump drive.  In addition to their internal jump drive, they may fit a Covert Jump Portal Generator I module which opens a bridge that select ships may travel through.  The type of ships which may utilize the covert jump bridge are those with a cloak bonus, either to movement or warping while cloaked (Jump Harmonics 2).  Black Ops may lock on to normal Cynosural Fields which are used by Capital Ships, although they have the unique ability to lock on to special Covert Cynosural Fields opened from either Covert Ops vessels and Force Recon ships.  These are not very common ships in the eve universe yet, but their purpose seem to be for stealth PvP operations in hostile territory, with the ability to bypass defensive camps.

These are commonly used for quick and deadly attacks in hostile space, also known as Blopsing.
-*'''[[Marauder]]'''- The first Tech 2 battleship, the Marauder is the ultimate in focused damage dealing.   Having special bonuses for it's weapons, it frees up high slots for other helpful modules like [[NOS]] and Tractor Beams.   These are rarely seen in PvP due to their low sensor strength, allowing them to be jammed more easily than other battleships.  However, they are very common in PvE Level 4 missions, many times as a salvage vehicle due to their extended tractor range.
+*'''[[Marauder]]'''The Marauders are advanced battleships whose damage projection and resilience let them specialize in combat. Having special bonuses for it's weapons, they tend to have many utility high slots, which allow the fitting of many useful modules. They can fit a [[Bastion]] module, an electronic interface similar to a dreadnoughts siege module. They are commonly used in PvE due to their high tank and high damage, however use of a Bastion module prevents movement, leaving the ship vulnerable to attack.

 *'''[[Capital Industrial Ship]]'''- There is only one Cap Industrial right now, the [[Rorqual]].  It is a capital ship, and while not quite as capable as a carrier, it can fit capital modules and provide capital support for other ships. It is designed to be a mining support platform on a large scale.  It can compress ore, allowing vast amounts of ore to be quickly moved to remote bases.  As a capital ship it requires the use of cyno fields to move about.

 *'''[[Titan]]''' Titans are massive ships, over 15 kilometers long, they are big and slow, but capable of withstanding massive amounts of damage. They can fit a [[doomsday device]] that is capable of destroying a capital ship in one shot. These are the most expensive ships in eve, and usually fitted with the most expensive faction, deadspace and officer modules as well.
 ==Industrial ships==
-*'''[[Industrial Ship]]''' (aka '''indy''' or '''hauler''')- Industrial ships are needed by everyone, PvP and PvE pod pilots alike.  If you are hauling loot or hauling ore, an indy will make your life easier by allowing you carry more, making for fewer trips.  Almost every pilot out there is capable of flying one from time to time.  They are core of industry, allowing [[pod pilot]]s to move vast amounts of goods from point to point. But remember that the cargo capacity comes with the price tag of being slow.

-*'''[[Transport Ship]]'''- Transport ships are more capable tech 2 industrial ships.  Having higher resistances, some are capable of fitting a covert ops cloak while others have a +2 warp strength.  While they cannot all hold more than tech 1 industrials, they all give you a better chance against pirates looking to steal your hard earned cargo.
+*'''[[Transport Ship]]''' Advanced industrial ships focusing on either resilience or stealth to specialize in transportation. They come in two types, blockade runners and deep space transports. Blockade runners are fast and fragile transports, capable of fitting a [[Covert Ops Cloak]]. Deep Space Transports are designed with the depths of lawless space in mind. They have incredible defensive capabilities and a massive cargo hold, however they are also some of the slowest ships found in space.
 ==ORE Ships==
-*'''[[Mining Frigate]]''' - This category consists of one ship currently, the [[Venture]]. An entry level mining platform, this platform allows new pilots to get to grips with mining, while also allowing for operation in lower security space with it's built in warp stabilizer bonus and utility high slot. It is also the only ship currently available with a gas mining bonus, this mixed with its sizable ore bay makes it a great ship for new and older players alike.

They can also make somewhat effective combat ships, provided you have enough of them.
-*'''[[Exhumer]]'''- Exhumers are tech 2 mining barges, allowing for greater mining potential.   They have higher resistances, which give them the ability to survive pirate attack.  Some specialize in [[ice mining]] while others have increased warp strength and specialize in [[mercoxit]] mining.
+*'''[[Mining Barge]]''' Ships specialized in strip mining, good for mass-resource harvesting purposes. Typically tankier than their smaller sibling, the Venture, they are often considered a step up in terms of mining. The Procurer is also a capable [[bait]] ship, able to fit an impressive tank that can catch unaware attackers of guard.
-*'''[[ORE Industrial]]'''- This category consists of one ship currently, the [[Noctis]].  A loot and salvage expert. Boosting Tractor Beam and Salvager cycle time and Tractor Beam range and velocity.
+*'''[[Exhumer]]''' Exhumers are advanced mining barges, that specialize in strip mining for resource harvesting operations. They are often far more expensive than other mining ships.
-*'''[[Industrial Command Ship]]'''- This category consists of one ship currently, the [[Orca]].  A mining support platform, the Orca is a bulk ore carrier, similar to a freighter, yet is much more suited for the rigors of mining than any freighter.

-*[[Rookie Ship]]- The starting ship for every pod pilot out there, this is the absolute worst ship to be flying at all times. Slow, with a small hold, minimal armaments, and no defenses, this is the ship of the zero SP alt.  The only plus to these ships is that they are free in the case of a ship loss.

-*'''[[Heavy Assault Ship]]''' (aka '''HAC''')- All HACs fill a unique role in the universe, having heavier armor and unique characteristics.  These are ubiquitous in PvP, found alone, and in small and large gangs alike.  They are often used for harder level 2 or 3 missions as well.
+*'''[[Recon Ship]]''' Recons are tech 2 cruisers specialized for electronic warfare. Recons are divided into Combat Recons and Force Recons. Combat Recons possess greater damage potential and sturdier tanks, though they do not possess either type of cloaking bonus they are hidden from directional scanners. Force Recons are capable of warping [[cloaked]], these ships spend much of their time attacking other solo ships or calling in the cavalry with their bonus to [[Cynosural Field Generator I]] fuel usage. They are ideal for solo PvP.

Having one flying in a PvP or PvE gang is a force multiplier for defense purposes.
+*'''[[Heavy Interdictor]]''' Essential for 0.0 combat, the Heavy Interdictor can fit a [[Warp Disruption Field Generator]], which generates a warp disruption bubble around the ship. They are capable of incredibly heavy tanks as well. When fitted with a [[script]], they can also generate a short-range infinite warp scrambler, or a longer range warp disrupter. They're often used to hold down large targets, such as capitals, for a larger fleet to kill.
-*'''[[Heavy Interdictor]]''' (aka '''Hictor''')- Essential for 0.0 defense, the Hictor can fit a [[Warp Disruption Field Generator]], causing ships warp drives to fail.  They can be fitted with heavy tanks as well.   When fitted with a [[script]], they can also generate a long-range infinite warp disruption beam, very useful in low sec operations.

-*'''[[Battlecruiser]]''' (aka '''BC''')- Battlecruisers are the next step up in a pilot's development life.  They are able to take more punishment and put out more damage than a cruiser.  They are heavily used in PvP, as they are half the price of a battleship.  But they are also used quite heavily in PvE, as they breeze through Level 3 missions, along with doing some Level 4's.
