Summary
The Leopard is a special release ship that was gifted as the final item in the 2013 holiday "Yule Lads" giveaway, one ship to each active account that requested it. The Leopard is the fastest ship (at warp speed) in the game. With the release of the Pacifier, it is now ever so slightly edged out of this spot, albeit at a much greater ISK and SP cost. Additional copies were attainable in the Dawn of Liberation limited time event in 2018.
Skills
Since new capsuleers now start with 
Spaceship Command III and Evasive Maneuvering I, the Leopard (and all other Shuttles) are instawarp capable without any additional skills. Also like other Shuttles, additional skills do not provide any particular benefit for the Leopard.
Tactics
Given its ludicrous speed the Leopard makes it tempting to move small goods such as injectors, skillbooks, and fashion items very quickly. If you are tempted to try and move valuable items in your Leopard keep in mind that you will be a primary target for hi-sec pirates both for your cargo and for your expensive and unique shuttle. Under no circumstances should you use autopilot when flying the Leopard, as sooner or later you will lose it to a ganker (whether or not you have expensive cargo). Even then, you will always be vulnerable to smartbomb ganks near trade hubs.
