The Guardian is by far the most commonly used logistics ship for armour gangs. As you'd expect from an Amarr ship, if offers a heavily low slot biased layout of 6/2/5 and by far the strongest powergrid, offering it the capability to fit a fierce armour tank as well as substantial repping power. The Guardian also receives 25m3 of drone bay and bandwidth, enough for a flight of light drones. As a dual logistics ship, the Guardian receives bonuses to remote armour repairers and energy transfers, as well as rep amount for armour rep drones.

The Guardian is the first vessel to feature Carthum Conglomerate's brand new capacitor flow maximization system, allowing for greater amounts of energy to be stored in the capacitor as well as providing increased facilities for transporting that energy to other ships.

Developer: Carthum Conglomerate

While featuring Carthum's trademark armor and hull strength, the Guardian, being a support ship, has limited room for armaments. Its intended main function is to serve as an all-round support vessel, providing the raw energy for fleet compatriots to do what they need to do in order to achieve victory.

If you feel like blinging it up, by using some faction modules you can fit an Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane on for more tank. This will not result in increased reimbursement.
