Summary
The Tornado was made to do one thing and one thing only: blow the ever loving crap out of anything that is unfortunately preoccupied with other threats. Like 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 a small frigate wolf pack 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.
Skills
Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Tornado for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.
Fitting
For more info on fittings, please go here
Tactics
The Tornado is a popular gatecamping ship. Dual-boxing it and a Scythe fit for both shield repair and remote sensor boost (to boost the Tornado's scan resolution and lock time) is one of the most common setups for a solo gatecamp.
Additionally, the high alpha of the Tornado makes it extremely popular for suicide ganking. Because an artillery Tornado does extremely high damage with a long cycle time, the response speed of CONCORD does not affect how much damage it will do and it can easily one-shot many ships.
Notes
The tornado design was the winner of create a starship contest.
