Summary

The Buzzard has an extra mid slot and less low slot compared to most covert ops frigates, making it less agile than the other covops frigates due to losing a nanofiber. This is not a major impediment though and the Buzzard still performs its role well.

Skills

Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Buzzard for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.

NOTES
  • Having empty slots on a covert ops ship is perfectly acceptable. This ship is not intended for any direct combat role.
  • The MAPC in the low slot is needed to give the Buzzard pilot enough powergrid to fit a capacitor battery for long warps.
  • Sisters Combat probes are definitely worth the extra ISK.
  • Carry extra probes, because you *will* forget about some of them.

NOTES
  • This fit requires at least a +3% cpu hardwiring implant.
  • It is of arguable usefulness within the Uni, and requires an expert skillset to fly a poor substitute of a proper tackle frigate.
  • There are very rare instances where this hero tackle frigate fit may actually be useful. The chance that this Buzzard can hold a target long enough for help to arrive is low, and is typically not worth risking the fleet scout.

NOTES
  • You know, for all those E-Uni Black Ops fleets. Don't forget to bring some Liquid Ozone.
  • If you do not wish to be cyno fodder, you can leave the high slot for the cyno empty, obviously.
  • The Deep Scanner probes can be used in conjunction with other probes to quickly classify which ship or cosmic signatures correlate with what you are searching for.
  • The Sensor Booster and Target Painter are for those rare moments where killmail whoring is generally acceptable, such as the destruction of a Player Owned Station.
