The Typhoon can be used in big PvP fleets, where it usually carries cruise missiles. In this role, it competes with cruise missile fitted [[Raven]]s. While the Raven has a range bonus, unbonused faction cruise missiles already have a range of nearly 150 km, which can be raised to about 180 km with a guidance computer, and this is enough range for many scenarios. As the mid slots are not filled with tanking modules, they can be used for various utilities such as target painters or other [[EWAR]]. Due to the Typhoon’s good speed and small radius it, also has a better chance to dissipate incoming damage from capitals, especially if mounting a signature radius suppressor.

In in solo or small gang PvP, the Typhoon can bring substantial DPS, and its mid slots comfortably allow for tackle modules and webs. In these contexts the Typhoon often brawls with torpedoes, which benefit greatly from its damage application bonus. Due to its speed, the Typhoon is also one of the few Tech 1 battleships which can realistically kite.

The Typhoon can also be used in PvE. It does well in Level 4 missions due to the selectable damage types of missiles, and its typical armour tank has naturally high EM/thermal resists, suiting it to DED sites with a lot of incoming EM/thermal damage. However, it lacks the clear progression to a better ship which the Raven has, because the Minmatar marauder, the [[Vargur]], uses turrets.
