==Summary==

Like the [[Crusader]] with its 4 highs and 4 lows the Claw is built for speed and/or damage dealing. It has only 2 mid slots, limiting its ability to tackle. The fitting requirements and poor tracking of artillery mean the Claw is normally fit with autocannons, but as an interceptor it is rather fragile to be used as a brawler unless equipped with an armor plate, which does not play to the Claw's strengths as an interceptor - speed and agility. A kiting fit with a Warp Disruptor and Barrage is possible, but not really the best ship at this role (see [[~~Crusader]] or [[Slicer~~]]).

All in all, while the Claw's mix of high firepower with high speed might appeal, it is a fragile combination. However, if you beef up the tank with a plate you'll probably find a [[Jaguar]] or [[Wolf]] a better choice for what you're trying to do.
