 ==Summary==
-The Typhoon's position as the cheapest of the Minmatar battleships is a little misleading, as it's not a very good ship for new pilots. With seven low slots, a useful rate of fire bonus and the bandwidth to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones, it has a lot of potential. But it takes considerable skillpoint investment to bring that potential out, and the rate of fire bonus is split between two different weapon systems.
+The Typhoon is one of the two Minmatar attack battleships and is bonuses for missiles, specifically favoring torpedoes. Like most Minmatar ships, the Typhoon can be either armor tanked or shield tanked, however with 7 low slots, the Typhoon is often armor tanked. Compared to the [[Raven]], the Typhoon is substantially more agile and can apply damage against faster moving ships more readily, however, the Raven can deliver its payload faster and can mount a stronger shield tank.
-The Typhoon is consequently not a common sight, but when it is used it's usually fitted with missiles, often with torpedoes and either neuts or [[Spider Tanking|armor RR]] for close combat. There are also viable L4 mission-running fits which use cruise missile launchers and sentry drones.
-However, new Minmatar battleship pilots will probably be more effective in one of the other two options.
