Griffin

The Griffin is much used by the Caldari Navy as a support vessel in combat squadrons, using its impressive array of electronic gadgetry to disrupt the operation of target ships, making them easy prey for traditional combat vessels.

The Griffin is by far the most popular of the electronic warfare frigates, largely due to the effectiveness of ECM as an EWAR type. The Griffin's slot layout of 2/5/2 is perfect for its role, allowing maximum weight of electronic warfare to be crammed into its mid slots. This combined with the longest targeting range of any t1 frigate, makes the Griffin a very specialized and very effective ship - capable of taking multiple larger ships out of a fight entirely.

However, this specialization has its drawbacks. The Griffin is the weakest of the EWAR frigates both in terms of HP and damage output, and its ECM modules along with a Signal Distortion Amplifier leave no room for tank. If a Griffin faces hostile fire and is unable to jam out the aggressor, it generally isn't able to last very long.

If the fit is tight you can either upgrade the Micro Auxiliary Power Core to T2 or downgrade the Medium Shield Extender to the Medium F-S9 Regolith Compact Shield Extender.
