*A full flight (5) heavy drones will neutralize 125 GJ every 6 seconds.  This is exactly as effective as 1 meta 0 heavy neut.

==Capital Energy Neutralizers==
Neutralizers and Nosferatus also exist in Capital sizes, with increased range, strength, and fitting costs to match. However, Capital Neutralizers have a unique feature that sets them apart from other sizes, and also limits their use: Capital Neutralizers have an additional attribute, '''Neutralization Signature Resolution''', which has a value of <span style="color:lightblue">8000m</span> on all variants. This attribute works similarly to the [[Missile mechanics#Missile damage formula|Explosion Radius]] attribute of Missiles: when the Neutralizer activates, this Signature Resolution value is compared to the target's Signature Radius, and if the target's Sig Radius is less than the neutralizer's Resolution, the neutralizer's strength is reduced based on the ratio of Sig Radius : Sig Resolution. The result of this is that Capital Neutralizers are extremely powerful on-paper, but are only effective against other capital ships, and cannot be meaningfully used against battleships and below. As such, most capital ships which use Neutralizers will fit a Heavy Neutralizer, rather than a Capital-sized variant.
