Ares

Interceptors utilize a combination of advanced alloys and electronics to reduce their effective signature radius. This, along with superior maneuverability and speed, makes them very hard to target and track, particularly for high caliber turrets. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Ares is unique among interceptors for having 4 low slots.
With its 4 low slots, the Ares is the fastest Interceptor once fit. It also features high structure HP, so when fit with a Damage Control II and a Medium Shield Extender II, the Ares is also the "tankiest" of the Interceptor group.
Its main competition comes from the Minmatar Stiletto with its 4 mid slots.
