Name: Jaguar Hull: Rifter Class Role: Assault Frigate
The Jaguar is a versatile ship capable of reaching speeds unmatched by any other assault-class vessel. While comparatively weak on the defensive front it sports great flexibility, allowing pilots considerable latitude in configuring their loadouts for whatever circumstances they find themselves in.
Developer: Thukker Mix
Being the brain-child of the nomadic Thukkers, it is no surprise the Jaguar is as fast as it is. Initially conceived as a way for the tribe to pack some added punch to their organized detachments, they've found it to be equally useful as messenger, scout and escort, and it is likely to become one of the most commonly-seen ships in the Thukkers' stomping grounds.

Summary
The Jaguar is known for being the assault frigate with the fastest base speed. It has a 4 mid slots, allowing it to fit multiple tackle modules and a shield tank module to give tank without compromising speed. These factors combined make it arguably the best frigate-sized heavy tackler around. While the Jaguar has a bonus to optimal range suggesting the use of artillery, it is more often fit as a close ranger brawler with autocannons.
When compared to its brother the Wolf, the Jaguar has less firepower but more speed and midslots, making it better at tackling roles.
