Summary
The Raven is a dedicated missile boat, that can be fitted with either cruise missile launchers or torpedo launchers and has equal bonuses to both. It is a very popular PvE level 4 mission runner, since it can use any missile ammunition equally well, allowing free choice of damage type. Their low speed and less-than-stellar tank make ravens a rarer sight in PvP, though torpedo firing ravens can make a serious dent in enemy battleships... if they can get in range. When fit with cruise missiles ravens have excellent range without needing to sacrifice slots on tracking enhancers or computers. In PvE this is a nice advantage, but in PvP the long travel time of the missile gives the target ample time to align and warp away unless it is held by a tackler, making ravens unpopular pvp snipers.

- This fitting has missiles and hardeners fitted for Guristas Pirates rats. For different pirates use the hardener types for the damage they do and the missile type that they're weak against.
- Consider making it your goal to purchase more cap-efficent tank modules so that you can start using the Large Warhead Rigor Catalyst I in some of the rig slots. This will give you much better damage against smaller ships, to help out your drones.
- This fit is taken from Battleclinic, which has a long discussion of the pros and cons of various modules.
