  info: "Inspired by a vicious scissor-toothed shark indigenous to old-world Matar,\
    \ the Hel is widely viewed as a sign of a Republic out for blood.  Since the beginning\
    \ of its development it has remained a project cloaked in secrecy, with precious\
    \ few people aware of its progress and its capabilities, and its formal unveiling\
    \ has come as a defiant slap in the face to many who formerly believed the Matari\
    \ incapable of working at this scale of starship design.  <br><br>Whatever comprises\
    \ the soil of its roots, though, one thing is clear: from no-frills living quarters\
    \ to grim, unadorned aesthetic, this ferocious behemoth has been designed for\
    \ one purpose and one purpose only.<br><br>\u201DImagine a swarm of deadly hornets\

## Summary

</div>
The Hel is basically an oversized Nidhoggur carrier with similar properties. It does tend to have a rougher time in larger capital brawls because its tank is not remarkable, but for drive-by attacks and as a ratting supercarrier it is the best.
<div style="display: flow-root;">

## Skills

</div>
Minmatar Carrier to V helps a lot for ratting applications.
<div style="display: flow-root;">

## Tactics

</div>
No sub-article about Hel roles or piloting tactics. You can write them here.
<div style="display: flow-root;">

## Notes

</div>
In Norse mythology, Hel was a goddess ruling over the underworld, which was also called hel in Old Norse; the word is descended from the same root as present-day English hell. In some mythological accounts, Loki was Hel's father.
