Interdictors are destroyer-sized vessels built to fill a single important tactical niche: the breaching of enemy warp tunnels. Capable of launching warp-disrupting interdiction spheres, interdictors are of great value in locations of strategic importance where enemy movement must be restricted. Additionally, much like their destroyer-class progenitors, they are well-suited to offensive strikes against frigate-sized craft. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Flycatcher is the Caldari interdictor. It can be fit with a sizable tank compared to other dictors, making it a viable option post-Rubicon for shield fleets.

- This is a fleet dictor fit with sizable EHP (~20K). With all skills at V, this Flycatcher is cap stable, going 2390 m/s with MWD (3390 with heat). Jester has additional comments on this post-Rubicon Flycatcher at http://jestertrek.blogspot.com/2013/11/fit-of-week-brick-flycatcher.html.

- A Flycatcher fit for small gang work. 10.9K EHP as listed, but the powergrid is very tight. A fitting rig can be used in place of a field extender in exchange for about 1k EHP. Speed is 2390 m/s (3390 with heat).
- DPS with kinetic missiles is around 120, but can be applied in a large portion of the Flycatcher's targeting range. Range with max skills is 63 km.
