Afterburners take up a medium power slot on your ship fitting.

There are different sizes of Afterburner based on basic ship hull size. A rough guide :

  • 1MN = Frigate size
  • 10MN = Cruiser/Battle Cruiser
  • 100MN = Battleship+

Drawbacks

  • Extra capacitor consumption as it cycles
  • Longer ship alignment speeds whilst it is active.
  • Afterburners don't provide anywhere near as much of a speed boost as a Microwarpdrive, (roughly 100% boost rather than 500% depending on variations) but come with less penalties.

Advantages vs. a Microwarpdrive

  • Considerably less skill and fitting requirements
  • They can still be used in Mission deadspaces that interfere with warp fields.
  • They don't have a penalty to Capacitor size
  • They don't have a penalty to ship signature size whilst active.
