Line 327:

* '''Other EWAR:''' Sensor dampening in the [[Maulus]], or tracking disruption in the [[Crucifier]]. In general, these will be less effective than ECM. Our opponent(s) will have already locked onto a miner, so damps won't save an aggressed miner. And our opponents will easily be able to close range on a slow mining vessel, such that tracking disruption will have little effect. Nevertheless, I can think of situations where these vessels could be effective.

* '''Combat scanner''' (either in a Tech 1 exploration frigate, or a Tech 2 Covert Ops frigate). If an aggressor is monitoring us from a safe spot, it might be useful to scan him or her down using Combat Scanning Probes.

* '''Combat scanner''' (either in a Tech 1 exploration frigate, or a Tech 2 Covert Ops frigate). If an aggressor is monitoring us from a safe spot, it might be useful to scan him or her down using Combat Scanning Probes, using a scanning frigate.

* '''Anti-frigate support'''. If our opponents are flying lots of fast frigates--unusual in low sec, but possible--they may be able to evade the turrets on our heavy tacklers. Light missiles are a great counter to frigate swarms. The rapid light missile launcher-fitted [[Caracal]] is probably the most common counter to frigates, but missile destroyers like the [[Talwar]] or [[Corax]] also work.
