Summary

The Stiletto is a popular interceptor: its 4 mid slots allow for more tackle/utility modules, and/or a basic shield buffer, leading many pilots to prefer it to the Malediction and Ares. It is strictly better than the Crow for the core roles filled by a fleet interceptor due to better speed, better agility, and faster lock time.

Skills

The Stiletto has tight fitting, so pilots will want high fitting skills, either IVs or Vs. Other core relevant skills include:

Navigation IV/V Increases Speed by 5% per level very handy for catching another ship; short training time (about 4 days) and useful for any ship. Signature Analysis IV/V Increases targeting speed by 5% (1x, and again about 4 days to V); helps pilots quickly lock and point a target trying to flee. Propulsion Jamming II/III Reduces capacitor burden of running points, scrams, and webs; allows the T2 versions of these modules at II Acceleration Control III/IV Boosts MWD/AB speed. High Speed Maneuvering III/IV Allows T2 MWD at III and for each level decreases the cap burden of running the MWD by 5%. Spaceship Command V 2% agility per level; short train, helps in flying any ship, and allows tighter turns, to keep Angular Velocity high.

Tactics

Most fleet interceptor tactics are fairly consistent across different hulls. Aspiring interceptor pilots should practice manual piloting at speed; YouTube has some good videos illustrating spiraling in safely to avoid gunfire, and keeping enemies at a set range while tackling them.
