Light, medium and heavy neutralizing drones employ the same general principles as other drones.  Generic information on [[Drones]] will not be discussed in this guide.

Here is a screenshot of the attributes with the information on neutralization for each of the drones:

As you can see cycle times are identical for all 3 sizes of drones at 6 seconds.  The amount neutralized is easy to remember as well as it is identical to the drone bandwidth: 5 GJ for light, 10 GJ for medium, and 25 GJ for Heavy drones.  Like all other drone based EWAR, pilot EWAR skills have no effect on the drones and there is no stacking or usage concerns between drones.
Cycle times are identical (6 seconds) for all three sizes of drones.  The amount neutralized is easy to remember, as it is identical to the drone bandwidth: <span style="color:lightblue">5 GJ</span> for Light, <span style="color:lightblue">10 GJ</span> for Medium, and <span style="color:lightblue">25 GJ</span> for Heavy drones.  Like all other drone-based EWAR, pilot EWAR skills have no effect on the drones. There are no stacking penalties when using Neutralizer Drones.


Accordingly:
Accordingly:
Line 326: Line 323:


*A full flight (5) heavy drones will neutralize 125 GJ every 6 seconds.  This is exactly as effective as 1 meta 0 heavy neut.
*A full flight (5) heavy drones will neutralize 125 GJ every 6 seconds.  This is exactly as effective as 1 meta 0 heavy neut.
So knowing this approximate effectiveness together with the strengths, such as great range, and weaknesses, such as vulnerability, neuting drones are comparable to TD or RSD drones.
