HAM-fit DNI is one of the most popular wormhole fleet compositions. Because the mechanics of wormholes favor heavy brawls more than the long-ranged compositions which excel in large Null-Sec engagements and mass limits make battleships impractical for many offensive operations, faction battlecruisers are common as the heaviest practical class of ship, with more efficiency relative to tonnage than their Tech I counterparts and much lower skill requirements than command ships (though for pilots who can fly it, the {{Ship|Nighthawk}} fits in perfectly due to being another Drake Variant). The DNI's seven launcher slots, combined with the application and range bonuses compensating for the of the primary drawbacks of heavy assault missiles, give it tremendous offensive power, while its large buffer tank is difficult to break without a similar composition or capital ships, particularly when backed by Tech II logi ships such as the {{Ship|Basilisk}}.
