From EVE University Wiki
Fitting: reworked this section. I considered to delete it as there are fittings on the ship pages but decided against it to keep the information level the same.
m Fitting: removed a text snippet from the old version which accidentally got copied.

This section focuses on fitting principles for fleet interceptors in the role as tackle. You can find solid fits for each fleet interceptor on their respective articles. Here we only want to talk about the general considerations. Many people who specialise as an interceptor pilot also have highly specialised personal fits which suit their personal style but are not recommended for a beginner or general purpose. Experienced pilots also often choose the more expensive and better faction modules. One of those modules alone usually costs more than a T2 fitted interceptor. This is reasonable for experienced pilots as they know how to fly a fleet interceptor without ever losing it. A new pilot will surely lose several interceptors before he masters piloting them. (Most players never focus enough on this special role to ever master it.)

As for most support ships, the basic rule for fitting interceptors is: Fit for your role. Basically you want to have a fast (MWD+speed/agility) platform for your long range point. Mods/rigs to adapt your locking range to overheated point range will also be used.


To fulfil your role as fleet tackle you always need to fit:
