Eris
RELATED UNI-WIKI REFERENCES

Interdictors are destroyer-sized vessels built to fill a single important tactical niche: the breaching of enemy warp tunnels. Capable of launching warp-disrupting interdiction spheres, interdictors are of great value in locations of strategic importance where enemy movement must be restricted. Additionally, much like their destroyer-class progenitors, they are well-suited to offensive strikes against frigate-sized craft. Developer: Roden Shipyards Roden Shipyards is the fastest growing ship manufacturer in the Federation, thanks to an extremely aggressive R&D division and extensive connections in government and military procurement communities. Roden ships are distinguished by strong armor defenses and excellent electronic capabilities. They also tend towards gunboats with exceptional range and tracking systems, and less reliance on drones than the average Federation warship. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Eris is the Gallente Interdictor. Long considered the black sheep of the interdictors due to its poor speed, tank, and fitting, the ship received a slurry of buffs in October 2020, alongside buffs to the Flycatcher and Heretic. A velocity buff, lower mass, and a new armor plate mass reduction bonus lets the Eris have a MWD speed competitive with that of the dominant Sabre, even with a 400mm plate on. Whether this is enough to lift the Eris out of "meme ship" territory will have to be seen.

Notes
In ancient Greek mythology, the goddess Eris personified discord and strife. She was responsible for the divine quarrel which eventually led to the Trojan War, and in Hesiod's account she was the mother of the Algea.
In many languages Eris and Ares sound quite similar, and pilots should take care when reporting either ship over voice comms.
