Added plots of key stats of battleships. I'm not really good with positioning images. So it's welcome if people give input or edit. |
added text under the plots to discuss typical values. |

[[File:Battleship-Velocity.png|400px|thumb|right|Velocity of battleships]] | [[File:Battleship-Velocity.png|400px|thumb|right|Velocity of battleships. You can see that normal velocities range from 89 m/s (Abaddon/Rokh) to 130 m/s (Typhoon/Megathron NI/Tempest FI) with a number of outliers. Extra slow are the Nestor (70) and Praxis (75). On the higher end we have the Typhoon FI (138), Barghest (148), Machariel (161), and Panther (182).]] | ||
[[File:Battleship-Mass.png|400px|thumb|right|Mass of battleships]] | [[File:Battleship-Mass.png|400px|thumb|right|Mass of battleships. Battleships typically have a mass close to 100 kt. But there are some exceptions: Black Ops weigh more with about 150 kt. Extra light are the Praxis (87 kt), Leshak (78 kt), and Nestor (20 kt).]] | ||
[[File:Battleship-Signature Radius.png|400px|thumb|right|Signature radius of battleships]] | [[File:Battleship-Signature Radius.png|400px|thumb|right|Signature radius of battleships. The signature radius varies from 350 m (Tempest FI) to 485 m (Hyperion). The Marshal (330), Typhoon (330), Typhoon FI (320), and Panther (288) have an extra small signature. The Rokh has the biggest signature with 500 m.]] | ||
[[File:Battleship-Targeting Range.png|400px|thumb|right|Targeting range of battleships]] | [[File:Battleship-Targeting Range.png|400px|thumb|right|Targeting range of battleships. The typical targeting range ranges from 81 km (Tempest) to 91.2 km (Barghest, Apocalypse NI). The number of exceptions is relatively big in this case. The Praxis has an exceptional short targeting range with 70 km. The three Black Ops Panther (66.4), Redeemer (70.6), and Sin (72.8) have rather short targeting ranges, while the Widow has a rather long range with 93.6 km. The Nightmare and Abaddon are both 96 km while the Rokh and Scorpion (both normal and navy) are 108 km. The longest range battleships are the Thunderchild (118) and the Marauders Vargur (105.3), Kronos (117), Paladin (118.3), and Golem (123.5).]] | ||
[[File:Battleship-Scan Resolution.png|400px|thumb|right|Scan resolution of battleships]] | [[File:Battleship-Scan Resolution.png|400px|thumb|right|Scan resolution of battleships. The typical sensor strength ranges from 111 mm (Abaddon, Raven) to 143 (many). Slower locking exceptions are the Rokh and Scorpion NI with 98 mm. Faster locking outliers are the Typhoon (150), Apocalypse NI (156), Machariel (163), Nestor (163), and Praxis (169). All T2 battleships also lock rather fast. The Marauders with Golem (160), Paladin (160), Kronos (160), and Vargur (180); the Black Ops with Widow (150), Sin (185), Panther (200), Redeemer (220), and Marshal (235).]] | ||
'''Battleships''' ( | |||
'''Battleships''' ('''BSs''', rarely '''BBs''' from US Navy terminology) are the biggest, heaviest sub-capital combat ships in EVE Online. They are correspondingly expensive, with even the cheapest battleship hulls selling for hundreds of millions of ISK. Tech 1 battleships are standard tools in higher-level PvE combat, are used in some large fleet [[Doctrines|doctrines]] in PvP combat, and are sometimes also used for solo or small gang PvP. | |||
There are two classes of Tech 2 battleships: '''Marauders''', which are specialized for mission-running, and '''Black Ops''' battleships, which can either transport fleets of stealthy ships across long distances using covert cynosural fields, or open the door for friendly capital ships to join a fight. | There are two classes of Tech 2 battleships: '''Marauders''', which are specialized for mission-running, and '''Black Ops''' battleships, which can either transport fleets of stealthy ships across long distances using covert cynosural fields, or open the door for friendly capital ships to join a fight. | ||
