Interceptors ("'ceptors", "inties") are the primary [[Tackling Guide|tacklers]] everywhere but nullsec (where [[Destroyer#Interdictors|interdictors]] and [[Cruiser#Heavy Interdiction Cruisers|HICs]] take over). They have the highest base [[scan resolution]] of any ship class, allowing them to lock on to other ships very quickly. While their main purpose is tackling, many interceptors can also be fitted to be effective combat ships. Their firepower and tank will be low compared to other ships, but they have the advantage of very high speed (even when combat fitted) and awesome agility. All interceptors ignore the effects of [[bubble|warp disruption bubbles]] (but will still be affected by targeted warp disruption such as Warp Disruptor modules).

Each race has two interceptors, one designed purely for tackling, with a bonus to the range of tackling modules, and the other designed more for damage-dealing. Both interceptors are based on the hull of the race's Tech 1 fast courier/scouting frigate. For more information about using interceptors see the [[Interceptors Guide]].
