{{On-Going Events}}
The [[Orca]] is a [[mining]] support vessel, classified as an Industrial Command Ship. You need to train the {{sk|Industrial Command Ships|mult=yes|price=yes}} skill in order to fly it. Note that even though it is listed under "Capital Industrial Ships" in the EVE market, it does NOT require the {{sk|Capital Industrial Ships}} skill (so don't buy the wrong skillbook!)
The [[Orca]] is a [[mining]] support vessel, classified as an Industrial Command Ship. It is NOT a Capital Industrial Ship.  Be forewarned: some people buy the wrong skillbook and waste over 400,000,000 isk.  Unless you want to fly a Rorqual, save yourself the cash. Any confusion stems from the Orca being listed under “Capital Industrial Ships” in the market window.  The proper book ({{sk|Industrial Command Ships}}) costs 45,000,000 isk from NPC school stations.

When looking at time to train vs. benefits received, Industrial Command Ships (ICS) V can be saved for last, behind Warfare Link Specialist (WLS) V. Depending on mapping and implants, ICS-V requires more than 30 days to train from ICS-IV and amounts to only 3% bonus to effectiveness of mining foreman links. WLS-V requires more than 20 days to train from WLS-IV and grants a 10% bonus to link effectiveness.
