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 Amarr fleet interceptor has an interesting set of bonuses being the only fleet interceptor with a bonus to tank. Though the Malediction's 4 low slots and resist bonus might suggest an armor plated fit, this is usually a bad idea since an interceptor's main strength is its speed. The resist bonus does however work well with an armor repairer in some circumstances.
The Malediction has 4 low slots and 3 mids, allowing it to fit the standard fleet tackler complement of either two tackle modules or a warp disruptor and a MSE in its mids. The Malediction has slightly above average grid, making fitting a MSE slightly easier. The Malediction's 4 low slots and slightly higher base speed than the Ares means the Malediction can support the best speed fit among the fleet interceptors.
The Malediction's armor resist bonus means a small armour rep can give it a decent active armour tank and opens up options to use it as a brawling inty. In Rubicon 1.0 the Malediction's previously rocket-only bonus has been broadened to light missiles as well, making an LML kiting fit very viable, where again the armor bonus can be put to use with an armor repairer.

- Notes: The core of this fit is the MWD, T2 point, DCU, MSE, Ionic rig. The rest can be played around with. You could change rigs and low slots to overdrive, nanofibers, auxiliary thrust rig or even fit a SigAmp for faster lock time. The weapons are only used to shoot drones.
- The other fits with a SeBo are more suited for rare occasions where you want a super fast locking tackler, usually to catch things on gates but most of the ships worth catching are either catchable without a SeBo or even not with a SeBo.

- This fit is not eligible for the E-Uni Ship Replacement Program as it lacks a Medium Shield Extender II
- The ship is very fast (4900 m/s with skills at level V and before any boost, 7100 m/s when overheated), it has great agility (align time is 3.4 s with MWD on) and little tank (EHP is 3200). Its DPS is about 60 with Mjolnir rockets. Don't fly this fit unless you really really want to catch something on a gate that aligns fast.
Fast Locking Tackle 2
Limited 1MN Microwarpdrive I
Warp Disruptor II
Medium Shield Extender II
Damage Control II
Type-D Attenuation Signal Augmentation
Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Small Polycarbon Engine Housing I
Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
- This fit is eligible for the E-Uni Ship Replacement Program
- The ship is fast (4500 m/s with skills at level V and before any boost, 6470 m/s when overheated), it has great agility (align time is 3.4 s with MWD on) and a modicum of tank (EHP is 5735).
- The point (Warp Disruptor II) can be replaced by a scram (Warp Scram II). This reduces the range at which you can tackle from 36 km (with overheat) down to 13.5 km, but shut down the opponent's MWD. If you want to fit a scram, consider replacing the signal augmentation with an overdrive injector. You don't need the extra targeting range. You'll take about 10% more time to lock, but will gain 10% speed.
- The ship purpose as fitted is to point (or scram). That's it. So, go for it, spiral in, hope the target's guns can't track you and reinforcement will catch up before you die. Have fun!
