How does one answer a wide range of yet unknown and emerging threats? Volume of fire. To this end, the Cyclone was redesigned with over a decade's worth of technical advancements crowned by a state of the art missile loading system, enabling it to launch an awe inspiring volume of missiles in a very short amount of time. A simple, yet effective, answer – and one that does not leave those who ask with much time to ponder it. 6 5 12400000 6 180 5 1100 Against the darkness, we stand as one.

Summary

The Cyclone Fleet Issue is a speedy missile-based battlecruiser, trading out the tank bonus from the t1 Cyclone for a stronger damage bonus. Sporting a sixth missile hardpoint and eight high slots in total, the ship is an offensive powerhouse, able to deal impressive damage for a missile hull.

Skills

Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.

Tactics

With its high missile damage bonus and an interesting reduction to signature radius, the Cyclone Fleet Issue can function well as a long-range kiting missile boat. Its relative speed and agility for a battlecruiser hull, combined with its lowered signature radius, allows it to outmaneuver while unleashing deadly amounts of missile damage at range.

Close range brawly fits can also work to an extent, using the reduced signature to try and speed-tank damage. However, the Cyclone FI is a bit more fragile than other navy battlecruisers, so pilots should exercise caution in committing to a fight.
