The ''' | The '''Orca''' is a mining support ship, classified as an Industrial Command Ship. The {{Sk|Industrial Command Ships|mult=yes|price=yes}} skill is required to fly it. Note that even though it is listed under "Capital Industrial Ships" in the EVE market, it does ''not'' require the {{Sk|Capital Industrial Ships}} skill. | ||

* '''{{Co|wheat|Cargohold}}''': The Orca's base cargohold is 30,000 {{m3}}, which can be expanded through modules and rigs. The cargohold also receives an additional 5% bonus to size for each level of {{Sk|Industrial Command Ships|icon=yes}}. Maxed out for hauling, an Orca can fit over 90,000 m³ in its cargo hold. This is the ''only'' hold on the ship that receives bonuses from modules and rigs. | * '''{{Co|wheat|Cargohold}}''': The Orca's base cargohold is 30,000 {{m3}}, which can be expanded through modules and rigs.

{{expansion past| The Orca has some disadvantages in a mining op. First, it's a pilot that could be mining, assuming they have the skills.

This is because an Orca with full bonuses ({{sk|Industrial Command Ships|V|icon=yes}}, {{sk|Mining Director|V|icon=yes}}, Warfare Link Specialist V, Mindlink Implant) would have roughly a 25% bonus to each activated mining link.|width=90%}} | {{expansion past| The Orca has some disadvantages in a mining op.

With the November 2016 Ascension update the Orca saw a drastic change in its ability to contribute to a mining op. Off-grid boosts were eliminated in favor of the new Command Burst system, and the Orca was given drastically increased mining and defensive capabilities. | With the November 2016 Ascension update the Orca saw a drastic change in its ability to contribute to a mining op.
