== Overview ==

[[Supercarriers|Supercarriers]] are part of the class of ships known as [[Super Capital| Super Capitals]] and are currently the 2nd largest class of ships in EVE.

Technically, a supercarrier is a [[Carrier|carrier]] class vessel which is however many time larger and much more expensive to build.

In comparison to a typical [[Carrier|carrier]], a supercarrier has the following features:

* Has larger cargo, hangar and drone bays
* Cannot be built in, or docked in stations
* Deploys 3 additional [[Fighter|Fighters]], [[Fighter Bomber]]s or [[Drone]]s per level compared to 1
* Can deploy [[Fighter Bomber]]s
* Immune to all forms of [[Electronic Warfare]] (e.g. ECM, conventional warp jammers, [[Stasis Webifers]], etc)
* Can only be prevented from jump/going into warp by [[Warp_Disrupt_Probe|Interdictor Bubbles]], [[Mobile Warp Disruptors]], and [[Focused_Warp_Disruption|focused warp disruption generators]] used by [[Heavy_Interdictors|Heavy Interdictors]]
* Has six high slots instead of five
* Able to fit [[Remote ECM Burst I]]

There are 4 types of Supercarrier, 1 for each of the 4 [[Races|races]]

* [[Amarr]] - [[Aeon]]
* [[Caldari]] - [[Wyvern]]
* [[Gallente]] - [[Nyx]]
* [[Minmatar]] - [[Hel]]

== Roles ==

Although all [[Supercarriers|supercarriers]] mainly provide anti-capital, logistical and support roles, the bonuses each of the 4 race [[Supercarriers|supercarriers]] allow different areas of specialization.

* Aeon: have armor resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy armor tanks
* Wyvern: have shield resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy shield tanks
* Nyx: have deployed [[Fighter|fighter]] bonuses allowing them provide more firepower to offensive operations while fielding a moderate armor tank
* Hel: have their strength as a [[Logistic|logistic]] platform with bonuses to shield/armor remote repair amounts. They are also extremely flexible and are able to field either a modest shield or armor tank

== Operational Tactics ==

[[Supercarriers|Supercarriers]] excel in performing three functions:

Anti-capital warfare. When fielding fighter-bombers, Supercarriers can put out enormous damage against capital-sized targets.

While performing [[POS|POS]] repairing, the supercarrier's immunity to EW allows it to easily slip in/out of [[POS|POS]] shields while repairing the [[POS|POS]]'s Shields/Armor without being concern of attackers with stasis webifers preventing an easy escape.

During attacks against hostile carriers employing [[Spider_tank|spider tank]] tactics, the supercarrier's remote ecm burst is invaluable in breaking their cycles and allows for friendly ships to overwhelm the target ship.

[[Motherships|Motherships]] are part of the class of ships known as [[Super Capital| Super Capitals]] and are currently the 2nd largest class of ships in EVE.

Technically, a mothership is [[Carrier|carrier]] class vessel which is however many time larger and much more expensive to build.

In comparison to a typical [[Carrier|carrier]], a mothership has the following features:

* Has larger cargo, hanger and drone bays
* Cannot be built in, or docked in stations
* Can equip a [[Clone_Vat_Bay_I|Clone Vat Bay]]
* Deploys 3 additional [[Fighter Drones]] per level compared to 1
* Immune to all forms of [[Electronic Warfare]] (e.g. ECM, [[Warp_Jammers|Conventional Warp Disruptors]], [[Stasis Webifers]], etc)
* Can only be prevented from jump/going into warp by [[Warp_Disrupt_Probe|Interdictor Bubbles]], [[Mobile Warp Disruptors]], and [[Focused_Warp_Disruption|focused warp disruption generators]] used by [[Heavy_Interdictors|Heavy Interdictors]]
* Has six high slots instead of five
* Able to fit [[Remote ECM Burst I]]
* Allowed to use one [[warfare link]] per racial [[Carrier|carrier]] skill level, instead of just one regardless of level.

There are 4 types of Mothership, 1 for each of the 4 [[Races|races]]

* [[Amarr]] - [[Aeon]]
* [[Caldari]] - [[Wyvern]]
* [[Gallente]] - [[Nyx]]
* [[Minmatar]] - [[Hel]]
