The Talos is a Tier 3 Battlecruiser that sacrifices durability for the ability to fit large (Battleship-grade) weapons.
Development The Talos began in YC 110 as a R&D concept by ORE. Conceived as a patrol craft for mining operations in lawless space, the Talos would have been abandoned completely were it not adopted by the Black Eagles, a black-ops branch of the Gallente government. The Black Eagles stripped the Talos of non-essential systems and bolted on battleship-class weapons, creating a quick-strike craft ideal for guerilla action.
The Talos remained a military secret until YC 113, when it was introduced into wider circulation as a third tier battlecruiser. Today the Talos is manufactured by Duvolle Labs, who modified the original ORE designs to bring it in line with Gallente standards.

Summary
The Talos is, essentially, a giant glass cannon: it can vaporize a ship in record time, but can't withstand much of anything. Unfortunately, the Talos doesn't receive the same amount of love that the other three do, being made for blasters and not railguns, and thus unfit for the sniper combat it's compatriates are often used for. If you insist on taking one into close quarters combat, expect to be primaried above even the notorious Deimos.
