This video has me doing this in a Machariel, which is a rather expensive ship for many people. However, you do not NEED an expensive ship to do this. The Drake is one of the best blitzing ships out there and only costs about 50-60m fully fit before insurance. Here is an excellent drake fit: | This video has me doing this in a Machariel, which is a rather expensive ship for many people. However, you do not NEED an expensive ship to do this.

While the Drake is generally too weak (DPS wise) to do L4 mission, it is possible to actually do blitzing of L4s in a Drake, thus allowing earlier access to L4s than usually recommended due to the training time for a battleship | |||

Many people will say the Drake is not a good level 4 ship and it does not have the necessary DPS. This is irrelevent if you fly the way I do in this video. The strength of the drake comes from its high mobility. In this mission for example, you would pull off a similar maneuver to the one I did in your drake and then burn further away, thus reducing all the damage from the rest of the rats while you pick off the targets from range. | Many people will say the Drake is not a good level 4 ship and it does not have the necessary DPS.
