'''Rigs''' are permanent ship modifications that fit into the rigging slots of a ship. Once fit, in most ships they must be destroyed in order to be removed (unlike regular [[modules]]). The exceptions are T3 Strategic Cruisers which feature removable rigs.  Most rigs have some other drawback associated with them; these penalties are reduced by training more levels in the associated [[Skills:Rigging|rigging skill]]: the amount of speed reduction caused by armor rigs, for example, is lessened (though never completely eliminated) by your {{sk|Armor Rigging}} skill. However, if you're willing to face the full downside, you can fit any rig with no skills whatsoever.

Rigs don't have powergrid or CPU fitting requirements, but instead require ''calibration'', a rig-specific fitting resource. All ships that can fit rigs have 400 calibration points, except for [[Pirate Faction Ship Guide|pirate faction ships]] which have 350. A Tech 1 rig requires between 50 and 250 calibration points, with Tech 2 variants requiring 50% more calibration than their Tech 1 equivalents.

All ships that can fit rigs have 400 calibration points, except for [[Pirate Faction Ship Guide|pirate faction ships]] which have 350. [[Alliance Tournament]] ships have 400 points regardless of faction, while other special edition ships follow the pirate faction rule. A Tech 1 rig requires between 50 and 250 calibration points, with Tech 2 variants requiring 50% more calibration than their Tech 1 equivalents.  


Rigs fit into ''rig slots'', and, just like modules, each rig takes up one rig slot. Tech 1 ships have 3 rig slots, Tech 2 ships have 2, and a few ships (notably [[Freighters]], [[Jump Freighters]], [[Corvettes]], and [[Shuttles]]) have none.
