==Summary==
==Summary==
The Maelstrom is the usual choice for minmatar pilots running Level 4 missions, which it does quite well with its bonus to shield boosting. PvE Maelstroms usually fit an X-large shield booster for a powerful pulsed shield tank, and artillery for long-range DPS -- though against the Angel Cartel, whose battleships like to engage at close range, some pilots like to fit large autocannons instead.

In PvP the Maelstrom is the backbone of the "alpha fleet" - fleets designed to one-shot ships to negate the power of logistics.
