Most of the armor and structure tanking modules increase your align time, making you turn and handle like a brick with align times pushing 15+ seconds. One way to mitigate this is to fit either a '''microwarpdrive''' (cycles in 10 seconds) or an '''afterburner''' (cycles as fast as 7,5 seconds). By pulsing the module once (activating it and then immediately deactivating it), you can align in 7,5 - 10 seconds flat as long as you start your align from a standstill (like after you've jumped through a gate).
Most of the armor and structure tanking modules increase your align time, making you turn and handle like a brick with align times pushing 15+ seconds. See [[Travel_fits#Propulsion modules|propulsion modules]] and [[Travel_fits#Friendly webs|friendly webs]] above for more information on how to mitigate this without sacrificing too much of your tank.
 
Using an afterburner in this fashion requires you to use a size-appropriate afterburner, 1MN for frigates, 10MN for cruisers, 100MN for battleships. Capital ships can't align faster enough with undersized 100MN afterburners, but can still abuse 500MN microwarpdrives for a 10 second align.
