The Cormorant is the only State-produced space vessel whose design has come from a third party. Rumors abound, of course, but the designer's identity has remained a tightly-kept secret in the State's inner circle.

Summary
The Cormorant is the Caldari T1 destroyer. Its bonuses favor railguns, but it can be blaster fit if you like. The Cormorant has many mid slots, which allows tackle gear and/or a shield tank. Of note is that the Cormorant's hull bonus to optimal range and the destroyer role bonus to optimal range gives it a spectacular range increase for railguns, such that it can be used as a poor man's anti-frigate sniper. Besides this niche role though the Cormorant has little use in PvP. The Cormorant is however a very capable level 1 mission runner, but lacks the tank for most level 2s.
