It was rejected by Hyasyoda management for being overspecialized.

The Naga design remained in the Hyasyoda archives, forgotten (save for a cameo in the Gallente holo-series CPF Blue). In YC 113 the Caldari Navy entertained contracts for a new tier of gunboat battlecruiser. Hyasyoda quickly submitted and won with the Naga, underbidding both Kaalakiota and Ishukone.

The Naga is effective in any campaign where fast, mobile firepower is required. launchers: 0 lows: 3 mass: 15000000 maxlockedtargets: 8 maxvelocity: 195 mediums: 6 powergrid: 875 quote: Our legacy is one of strength. quote_attribution: CEO Ahtonen Osmon reqskills: '*{{RequiredSkill|Caldari Battlecruiser|I}} ** {{RequiredSkill|Spaceship Command|III}} ** {{RequiredSkill|Caldari Cruiser|III}} *** {{RequiredSkill|Spaceship Command|II}} *** {{RequiredSkill|Caldari Destroyer|III}} **** {{RequiredSkill|Caldari Frigate|III}} ***** {{RequiredSkill|Spaceship Command|I}}' scanres: 200 sensortype: Gravimetric sensorvalue: 21 shieldem: 0 shieldexp: 50 shieldhp: 2160 shieldkin: 40 shieldtherm: 20 shipid: 4306 shipimg: Naga.jpg shipname: Naga sigradius: 215 structurehp: 1755 targetrange: 75.0 tech: '' totaltraintime: 1211640 turrets: 8 variations: none volume: 252000 warpspeed: 3.5 warptime: 10.92 wikireferences: '' source_url: https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Naga title: Naga type_id: 4306 validation_score: 1.0 --- Naga
## Summary
The Naga is the Caldari Navy's entry in the "see who can fit the biggest stick on the smallest ship" competition, and it certainly makes an impression. As with the other attack battlecruisers, the Naga has a tissue paper tank, but reaps the benefits of Battleship-grade weaponry (of which range is the most important to the fragile ship). Of the four, the Naga is by far the easiest to fit for sniper combat due to the natural range of railguns coupled with the optimal range hull bonus. With Tech 2 railguns and good skills, the Naga can reach ranges of upwards of 200km. ## Skills Sharpshooter to at least 4 to extend the range of your guns. Sharpshooter 5 is a requirement for Tech 2 large railguns. Micro Jump Drive Operation is not critical, but helpful, as a micro jump drive will significantly help with range control. Unlike other ships of this size, the Naga usually sacrifices all tank in favour of range, so Tech 2 tanking skills are not required. ## Tactics Range control is the most important tactic for the fragile Naga. A micro jump drive or microwarpdrive is ideal for keeping enemies outside of their weapon ranges. With a range of over 200km, the Naga can out snipe most ships provided it can keep them from getting under its guns, where the naturally poor tracking of railguns will afford them near complete safety. ## Notes Naga/Nagi are supernatural half-human, half-serpent beings common across the legends of many south and southeast Asian cultures, and incorporated into some forms of Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, and more local religious practices. The word naga in Sanskrit (नाग) means "snake" or "cobra", and descends from the same Proto-Indo-European ancestor-word as English snake. The Naga was a contestant in the create-a-starship contest. ## Patch History
