Tech 1
Frigate
There are a great number of T1 frigates, and each ship is highly specialized, giving bonusses to a specific role or module.
Mining
Mining frigates all have bonusses geared toward mining, and while a great start for any would-be miner, they are notriously bad in combat situations.
Electronic Warfare
Electronic Warfare frigates all have bonusses to EW modules, such as the Target Painter, ECM modules, Remote Sensor Damper and Tracking Disruptor. In a small pack, and with some support ships to deal damage, they can be formidable.
Exploration
Geared toward exploration and scanning, the 'Exploration' class of T1 Frigates all have bonuses to aid in scanning. Fitted with a Core Probe launcher, they can make a good cheap alternative to the Tech 2 Covert Ops variants.
Tackler
Tackler frigates, often called 'Fast Frigates', are built to align and reach their top speed quickly. This makes them ideal as platforms for tackling larger vessels, as they can reach them and use relevent modules a great deal faster than most.
These ships are also ideal for fast travel or small cargo runs and they make a great alternative to a shuttle, especially in losec or during wars, as they can typically enter warp from cloak before the enemy can lock them.
Damage Dealer
Launcher
Turret
Damage Dealer frigates are typicaly split into two sub categories, Launcher and Turret, as they have slightly different focusses. In general, they tend to have the ability to take a little more damage than their counterparts and deal out a little more damage in return, but they are little match for a larger ship when alone. Interestingly, the Gallente have two turret-focussed ships, as they do not tend to use missiles - although the Tristan can fit launchers, it recieves no bonus for them.
