Previously commonly fitted with both MWD and AB to mitigate damage burning in to Attack Battlecruisers, the advent of the 50% reduction in MWD sig bloom for HACs means this is no longer really necessary. The Deimos has enjoyed a new life as a kiting ship with 250mm Railguns - replacing the Talos for some due to its enhanced speed and tank pared with comparable DPS at the ~20-30km engagement ranges common for kiting ships.
The bonus to repair makes the Deimos the HAC most suited towards solo PVP.
Sharing more tactical elements with smaller vessels than with its size-class counterparts, the Deimos represents the final word in up-close-and-personal cruiser combat. Venture too close to this one, and swift death is your only guarantee.
