The Blackbird is a small high-tech cruiser newly employed by the Caldari Navy. Commonly seen in fleet battles or acting as wingman, it is not intended for head-on slugfests, but rather delicate tactical situations. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Blackbird is the Caldari EWAR cruiser, and is bonused for ECM. A large number of Blackbirds is almost the signature of university fleets. The blackbird has hull bonuses to jammer range as well as strength, allowing it to fight from much further out than a griffin, which is great for an EWAR ship. A blackbird has the mid slots to support a rainbow fit of 4 racial jammers with 2 mids and 2 lows to spare, allowing the flexibility of a propulsion module and a shield or armor tank module.
Skills
There are a few skills which will improve your abilities as an ECM pilot:
Caldari Cruiser - Skills for the specific types of ship you are flying will give you the greatest improvement in ECM effectiveness. Training this skill to V is expensive but useful, especially as it also unlocks several T2 ship options as well.
Long Distance Jamming - Increases the optimal range of your ECM modules by 10% per level. Requires Electronics 4. Another great skill to work towards if you enjoy EWAR. Since the tank of your ship is mainly in its range from the fight training this to at least IV is high on your priority list.
Electronic Warfare - Required to use ECM mods, reduces their cap usage by 5% per level. You are more then likely to warp away from the battle before your cap runs out. This skill is a prerequisite for several other useful skills, and training it to IV is recommended for Signal Dispersion (and as a bonus will also unlock Electronic Warfare drones).
Signal Dispersion - Increases your jam strength by 5% per level. This skill requires Electronics 5 and Electronic Warfare 4. Caldari Cruiser gives a bigger benefit, but this is still very useful.
Frequency Modulation - Increases the falloff distance of your ECM mods. You will usually aim to jam at your optimal, so train this skill after Long Distance Jamming.
Electronic Superiority Rigging - This will allow you to use the ECM rigs. Level I is required to fit the rigs at all, and higher levels will improve your tank slightly, especially if you combine ECM rigs with a shield tank.
