Electronic attack ships are mobile, resilient electronic warfare platforms. Although well suited to a variety of situations, they really come into their own in skirmish and fleet encounters, particularly against larger ships. For anyone wanting to decentralize their fleet’s electronic countermeasure capabilities and make them immeasurably harder to counter, few things will serve better than a squadron or two of these little vessels.

Developer: Lai Dai

Lai Dai have always favored a balanced approach to their mix of on-board systems, leading to a line-up of versatile ships but providing very little in terms of tactical specialization.

Summary

The Kitsune is a T2 ECM frigate based on the

. Unlike the Griffin it has a range bonus to its jammers as well as jam strength, allowing it to operate from further out and make jams more likely to land. Despite these advantages, there is still debate as to whether the Kitsune is really worth it over a

Icon powergrid.png525 MW Icon cpu.png425 tf

Icon capacity.png305 m³

. A Blackbird has similar jam range, a considerably stronger tank, a longer base targeting range, and is a fifth of the price. The Kitsune's main advantages are its speed, agility and fast lock time for getting first jam. The Kitsune also requires at least one targeting range mod in order to jam at a similar range to the Griffin and Blackbird.
