Naturally however, to reach this stage, Hurricanes rely on numbers to achieve a large enough alpha strike. Rough numbers would be 20 Hurricanes to safely volley off enemy T1 Cruisers, and around 50 to volley off similar Battlecruisers or T3 Cruisers. Bear in mind as well that you will lose ships through the fight as well, and some additional buffer of ships is needed to maintain a sufficiently high alpha strike through a fight

In a sustained battle, your tank and DPS is comparably weak versus equivalent doctrines such as Feroxes, so if you do not have the ships to volley opponents off the grid quickly, then skirmish tactics become the order of the day. ~~It remains a valid tactic to use tactical warps~~ to pick off smaller, weaker support ships in the enemy comp without fully committing to a fight, potentially weakening them for a full on assault, or alternatively just satisfying yourself with these harassment tactics

For the Uni, while fleets of 50+ is achievable for special events, 20-30 is your usual roaming fleet size, so FCC Hurricanes for the Uni are unlikely to be picking fights with other Battlecruiser fleets. Instead they can be used to devastate smaller ships. Fleets of T1 Cruisers such as Rail Moas or Caracals or T3 Destroyers such as Jackdaws, are good targets for a fleet such as this
