Caldari Frigate bonuses (per skill level):
Ship Attributes

Summary
The Manticore is the Caldari Stealth Bomber. Its unique selling point is its high CPU, which means that, unlike the Nemesis, it can comfortably populate its 4 mid slots. This makes the Manticore arguably the best solo torpedo bomber, since it can use its mids to fit EWAR modules to prevent a target from fighting back.
Skills
While the skills above will allow you to 'fly' the Manticore it is pointless to fly a Stealth Bomber without a covert ops cloaking device (Cloaking IV), or torpedo launchers (Torpedoes I).
Required to function as a Stealth Bomber:
Suggested Skills:
- Navigation III
- Acceleration Control III
- Warp Drive Operation III
- Spaceship Command IV
- Evasive Maneuvering III
- CPU Management V
- Power Grid Management V
- Capacitor Management III
- Target Painting II
- Electronic Warfare II
- Sensor Linking II
- Long Range Targeting III
- Signature Analysis III
- Target Management III
- Shield Management III
- Shield Operation III
- Energy Grid Upgrades III
- Launcher Rigging II
- Astronautics Rigging II
- Jury Rigging III
- Mechanics IV
In addition, you will want to get missile launcher skills as high as possible, as well as Bomb Launching skills. These skills include:
- Missile Bombardment IV
- Missile Projection III
- Rapid Launch III
- Target Navigation Prediction III
- Warhead Upgrades III
- Bomb Deployment I
- Covert Ops IV
Tactics
Like all stealth bombers, the Manticore is designed for surprise attacks against specific targets. A general guide to stealth bombers is available here.
Notes
The Manticore is a fierce mythological creature originating in ancient Persian legends and widespread in medieval and early-modern European art. It is usually depicted with a human or human-like head, a lion's body, and a spiny, poisonous tail.
