==Summary==
==Summary==
The Tornado was made to do one thing and one thing only: blow the every loving crap out of anything that is unfortunately preoccupied with other threats. Like the other attack battlecruisers, this ship is all gank and no tank. This naturally leads many to fit it for 200km+ sniper combat, since even a couple of cruisers or small frigate wolfpack can tear it apart rather quickly. The Tornado is thus often fitted with 1400mm Artillery and used to deal massive alpha damage, in similar style to the [[Maelstrom]].
