The rifter is one of the best combat T1 frigs, and by most people even considered THE best. In a dogfighting fit with ACs, ab, web and scram, it can take on most other frigs and even some larger targets and win (watch out for the taranis and all the AFs though). Punisher and incursus are the amarr and gallente equivalents, but they don't quite reach the level of the rifter.

Theese are the primary tacklers in anything but 0.0 (where dictors and hics take over). They have the highest scan res of any class, and only vigils (minmatar EW frig) can match their speed. Their main purpose is tackling, and that's what they do best, but many interceptors can also be refit to be effective combat ships in an interceptor only gang. Their firepower and tank will be low compared to other types of ships, but they have the advantage of very high speed (even when tank+gank fitted) and awesome agility.

They can warp cloaked, used as scouts and for probing stuff down. Can also be used for tackling stuff it has scouted/probed out, but that's only for experienced people that know what they can and can't hold long enough for help to arrive, and what targets are worth the risk.

Super high dps/alpha frigates that can warp cloaked and doesn't have a sensor recalibration delay after decloaking. In 0.0, they can also launch bombs (basically a large, higher damage smartbomb). They have trouble hitting small targets with their torpedoes though.

These very alot from race to race. Basically, they are frigate sized version of the combat recons that will be described below.
