Summary
The Hookbill is the Caldari Navy faction frigate. It has 3 launcher slots and bonuses to missile velocity and (mainly) kinetic damage. While it is possible for the Hookbill to fit light missile launchers, most are fitted with rockets and take advantage of the velocity bonus to push their range out to near 14km. The Hookbill's main distinguishing feature is its 5 mid slots, allowing it to fit a variety of shield tank and tackle modules, which can make it an effective, if somewhat expensive, tackler or give it unprecedented range control in solo situations.

- An AB, more DD oriented fit of the dual web Hookbill.
- The main benefits of this fit over the MWD fit are that the AB is not affected by scrams, it has much higher DPS (22% higher) and it is much harder to neut.
- The downsides are slightly lower resists and more of an EM/Thermal hole.
- 7k EHP
- 1120 m/s
- 164dps
- Cap stable at 85%

Tactics
Because the Hookbill has five mid slots, it is one of the only frigates that can viably fit double webs. This can give the Hookbill outstanding range dictation, and allow it to deploy nearly its full DPS consistantly, as rocket damage varies inversely with target velocity. Double webbing allows the Hookbill to stop almost anything in its tracks, and it can even keep a Dramiel within killing range, something few ships are capable of.
