The [[Talwar]] uses rockets or light missiles to fight smaller craft like [[Frigate]]s or other [[Destroyer]]s. Due to its unique bonus amongst Destroyers reducing the signature radius bloom of [[MicroWarp Drive]]s it is the fastest Destroyer available and able to reach such speeds without increasing its own signature radius significantly. | The [[Talwar]] uses rockets or light missiles to fight smaller craft like [[Frigate]]s or other [[Destroyer]]s.

Due to its short range and the ship heavily relying on speed, acquiring a good level of knowledge in [[Skills:Navigation|Navigation skills]] can improve the ship's performance significantly. [[Skills:Missiles|Missiles skills]] can increase the ship's damage output and range even more. | Due to its short range and the ship heavily relying on speed, acquiring a good level of knowledge in [[Skills:Navigation|Navigation skills]] can improve the ship's performance significantly.

As with all destroyers, the '''Talwar''' carries a great deal of firepower and very little tank. Unusually, it has a bonus to [[microwarpdrive]] signature bloom which, combined with its role bonus to missile range, makes it an excellent kiter, using range and speed to make up for a lack of tank. Fits vary in their emphasis on range as a defense, with some committing fully to range (and sometimes e-war) for defense and others mounting a small tank. Getting the most out of the ship's long-range capability requires fighting outside of point range; it is common for Talwars to forgo fitting tackle and instead rely on other ships to hold their targets. | As with all destroyers, the '''Talwar''' carries a great deal of firepower and very little tank.

Fitting a full rack of light missile launchers can be difficult; Use Compact Light Missile Launchers if you have difficulties. | Fitting a full rack of light missile launchers can be difficult; Use Compact Light Missile Launchers if you have difficulties. | ||
