+Navy Caracal? Why is that?<br>
+Well, we need to reach DPS target, and normal Caracal was not enough. Fit is also a bit different:
+* Deadspace Shield Booster. It's pricy, but I felt like it's needed (it should be possible to run without it, but I tend to patch my bad skills with ISK).
+* Thermal rig instead of EM. Two reasons - first, EDENCOM ships deal Thermal damage, and they are not affected by turret penalty. Second - it aligns better with next steps, as EM will always be our worst resist.
+* T2 Launchers - DPS!<br>
+<br>
+Which missiles?<br>
+Good question! I didn't knew it myself before I started T2s. There are 3 options:
+* Navy missiles + Rage against BSes - that seems to be good option, but eats a lot of ISK from every run
+* T1 miss8iles + Rage against BSes - cheaper alternative of above, but run times might get too long for comfort
+* Rage missiles only - the most "paper DPS", but worse application. But we have web, so maybe application is good?
+There was no other way to be sure, than to test it! So I did - 20 runs of each method, to compare average run times and average ammo cost.<br>
+<br>
+There will be a table here<br>

 Notable spawns:
 * Devoted Knight & 4x Devoted Hunters - will break your tank if you're not fast. Load Faction ammo, shoot Knight first
 * 3x Cynabals - looks scary, but they will come close, and you're quite resistant to Neuts, so take them one by one and it's good. You will be webbed to stop though.
