Command ships are engineered specifically to wreak havoc on a battlefield of many. Sporting advanced command module interfaces, these vessels are more than capable of turning the tide in large engagements. Field command ships are geared more towards out-and-out combat than their fleet command counterparts, though both ships can hold their own in battle. Developer: Kaalakiota As befits one of the largest weapons manufacturers in the known world, Kaalakiota's ships are very combat focused. Favoring the traditional Caldari combat strategy, they are designed around a substantial number of weapons systems, especially missile launchers. However, they have rather weak armor and structure, relying more on shields for protection. SHIP BONUSES Caldari Battlecruiser Skill Bonus: 4% bonus to all Shield Resistances and 7.5% bonus to heavy and heavy assault missile kinetic damage. Command Ships Skill Bonus: 7.5% bonus to Heavy Assault and Heavy missile launcher rate of fire, 5% bonus to Heavy Assault Missile and Heavy Missile explosion radius and 3% bonus to strength of Siege Warfare and Information Warfare links. Role Bonus: Can fit up to three Warfare Link modules.

Summary

The Nighthawk is a Caldari command ship bonused for missiles. It is more suited to damage dealing than the Vulture, certainly at short range, but its 5/5 slot layout makes it slightly less tanky than the Vulture's 6/4 layout, so the Vulture is generally preferred for fleet boosting.
