Summary

The Caldari mining frigate. There's no particular advantage to mining in a frigate, and miners should aim to upgrade to an Osprey or Mining Barge as soon as possible.

The Bantam has space for a single drone, giving it a small niche at the beginning of the game when fighting NPCs that jam, such as guristas.
