==Summary==

The Raven Navy Issue (commonly abbreviated ~~CNR~~, and sometimes ~~RNI~~) is a logical progression from the standard [[Raven]], with more fitting, better capacitor and better base tank. The Navy Raven loses the Raven's rate of fire bonus but makes up for it with two additional launcher slots, giving it a 33% DPS boost to the Raven's (up to) 25% boost. The Navy Raven also gains an explosion radius bonus, meaning it will do more damage to smaller targets.

The [[Scorpion Navy Issue|Navy Scorpion]] and Navy Raven are similar ships and are often compared. The Navy Scorpion has a stronger tank and is easier to fit, while the Navy Raven has a longer range and does more damage to smaller targets due to its explosion radius bonus.
