Shuttles are | '''Shuttles''' are cheap, fast [[ships]] used to travel between systems. They are cheap to construct and buy off the market and they move fast for their price, thus making them an excellent choice for travel. They have very limited cargo space and cannot fit any [[modules]]. Pilots can fly shuttles from any [[faction]]. | ||
Shuttles are the only ship class that are naturally immune to Interdiction Warp Distruption Probes, Warp Disruption Field Generators, and Mobile Warp Disruptors, allowing them to travel within nullsec without the risk of being caught in [[Tackling#Warp disruption fields|bubbles]]. | Shuttles are the only ship class that are naturally immune to Interdiction Warp Distruption Probes, Warp Disruption Field Generators, and Mobile Warp Disruptors, allowing them to travel within [[System security#Null security|nullsec]] without the risk of being caught in [[Tackling#Warp disruption fields|bubbles]]. | ||
Compared to a Capsule, a shuttle has a faster sub-warp speed and warp speed, with their additional 10 m<sup>3</sup> cargo hold they can bring small goods like blueprints and boosters. However, shuttles are extremely vulnerable to [[gate camps]] smartbombs, and it is advised to use other ship with better tanking to haul valuable goods. | Compared to a [[EVE Lexicon#Capsule|capsule]], a shuttle has a faster sub-warp speed and warp speed, with their additional 10 m<sup>3</sup> cargo hold they can bring small goods like [[blueprints]] and [[Medical boosters|boosters]].

A repackaged shuttle is only 500 m<sup>3</sup>, allowing it to be carried in the cargo hold of a [[battleship]]. This avoids leaving a ship behind. | ||
