+ | The Firetail is modeled off a fighter frigate known as the Shamrock, a design used by a small, now-extinct pirate faction known as Lazari Dromitus. The blueprint found its way into the hands of Matari military forces after a raid on Lazari Dromitus's headquarters succeeded in killing its leader, thus beheading the organization and scattering its remnants to the four winds. It has since been improved upon and upgraded, and the Firetail is now a mainstay in most Republic Fleet patrols. | ||

The Firetail is best described as a lighter, faster Jaguar. The slot layout is effectively the same (the Firetail actually gets 3/4/3 with 2 turrets, but a 20% per level turret bonus rather than the Jaguar's 10% - a holdover from when this ship had a mix of turrets and launchers, and CCP didn't want to add further turret hardpoints when they rebalanced it). Common fits for the Firetail are also very similar to the Jag, with a medium shield extender as standard and either prop/scram/web or dual prop & scram being the most common combinations. As with the Jag, an armor tank is possible, and this can potentially be flown as a 'super rifter', although this is less common. | The Firetail is best described as a lighter, faster Jaguar.

Like the Claw, the Firetail receives no turret range bonus, and because of this (and its tracking bonus) you're usually better off holding it at range where possible, assuming your weapon system (and speed) gives you the option. It can still hit out quite far with barrage, but real DPS will reduce quite a bit as range increases. Since Firetails are usually shield tanked, EM or thermal damage is recommended. Firetails have a spare high slot, which may fit a nos or neut if they have the fitting room - beware of this if you rely on an active tank. | Like the Claw, the Firetail receives no turret range bonus, and because of this (and its tracking bonus) you're usually better off holding it at range where possible, assuming your weapon system (and speed) gives you the option.
