While not endowed with as much pure firepower as other ships of its category, the Ishtar is more than able to hold its own by virtue of its tremendous capacity for drones and its unique hard-coded drone-control subroutines. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
One of the best cruiser class ships, the Ishtar can deal some serious damage with drones with a good tank. The Ishtar has the bandwidth to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones, and with Heavy Assault Ships 4 it has a 325m3 drone bay, allowing it to carry several different drone flights. With a balanced 5 mid, 5 low slot layout the Ishtar can be shield or armor tanked. Without refitting the Ishtar can deploy sentry drones and snipe, or heavy drones and brawl up close, while carrying light and medium drones to deal with smaller ships. With its hybrid damage bonus it can fit blasters to add to its short range damage or rails to add to its sniping ability.
