==Summary==
==Summary==
The Cyclone is a Minmatar Battlecruiser and, unlike its brother the [[Hurricane]] and most other Minmatar ships, the Cyclone is bonused towards missiles rather than projectile turrets. Unlike the Drake, which is designed to mount a large buffer tank and deal most of its damage with kinetic missiles, the Cyclone is bonused to take advantage of shield boosters to mount a massive active tank, albeit for a only limited period of time, while its rate of fire bonus allows the Cyclone greater flexibility in terms of the damage types it can use. The Cyclone also has a decent dronebay and bandwidth 50m<sup>3</sup>, allowing it to field a full flight of medium drones for extra DPS, or two flights of small drones instead.
