==Summary==

Resembling a cross between a brick and a rusty nailgun, the Rupture is the Minmatar Republic's heavy combat cruiser, and a ~~very~~ popular ship for both mission running and ~~pvp~~ despite being quite sluggish for a Minmatar design. It can mount a good active armour tank or regenerating passive shield tank ~~(as below)~~ and use artillery and drones to destroy ~~mission~~ rats from ~~range~~. The Rupture is also a ~~strong~~ PvP ship. A number of fittings work well~~; in E-Uni fleets the most common~~ approach is to fit ~~an armour~~ buffer tank ~~(as below)~~ and provide extra DPS and some sticky secondary tackle. ~~Strong fitting skills and access to T2 autocannon (~~for ~~kiting with Barrage ammo) open up some fast~~-~~moving shield~~-~~tanked PvP fits~~, ~~which~~, ~~oddly~~, ~~work rather better in that role than~~ the ~~Stabber~~.

Resembling a cross between a brick and a rusty nailgun, the Rupture is the Minmatar Republic's heavy combat cruiser, and a popular ship for both mission running and PvP despite being quite sluggish for a Minmatar design.

In missions, the Rupture can mount a good active armour tank or regenerating passive shield tank and use artillery and drones to destroy rats at long range. The Rupture can launch a full flight of five light drones, with space for a few spares, which will be a new feature for pilots stepping up from PvE in Minmatar destroyers; new pilots might want to be aiming to train Drones V at around this point, as drones add useful DPS and are a feature of almost all larger ships.

The Rupture is also a reliable PvP ship. A number of fittings work well. A simple and viable approach is to fit a buffer armor tank and provide extra DPS and some sticky secondary tackle in fleet situations. A buffer shield tank produces a faster, more tactically-flexible ship with space for speed- and damage-boosting modules in its low slots, though the [[Stabber]], with its falloff range bonus, is the archetypal T1 Minmatar kiting cruiser.
