Align time is a measure of how long it takes your ship [[Warp mechanics#What_you_need_to_know_about_entering_warp|enter warp]] from a dead stop. It takes a minimum of 2 seconds (equivalent to 2 [[Server tick|sever ticks]]) for an enemy pilot to be able to [[Targeting#Targeting_time|lock]] and [[Tackling|tackle]] your ship. You can therefore escape to warp before the enemy could possibly catch you if your align time is less than 2 seconds .
Align time is a measure of how long it takes your ship [[Warp mechanics#What_you_need_to_know_about_entering_warp|enter warp]] from a dead stop. Since it takes a minimum of 2 seconds (equivalent to 2 [[Server tick|sever ticks]]) for an enemy pilot to be able to [[Targeting#Targeting_time|lock]] and [[Tackling|tackle]] your ship, an align time of less than 2 seconds lets you escape to warp before the enemy could possibly catch you.


The align time for a given fit is listed in the navigation tab of the [[Fitting 101#Fitting_Window|fitting window]]. The align time given is for a ship at a dead stop. A ship in motion may align faster or slower depending on the course correction required.
