Strategic Cruisers are Tech 3 Cruiser class vessels which can be configured for a variety of roles through subsystems. These subsystems allow pilots to configure their strategic cruiser in a variety of ways, with each configuration possessing unique looks and capabilities.
Introduced in the Apocrypha expansion, Strategic Cruisers are the first Tech 3 vessels in Eve Online. Each race has one strategic cruiser hull, with hundreds of possible combinations for each race's strategic cruiser through the use of unique subsystem components.
Initially introduced with three subsystems at the launch of Apocrypha, the fourth variety of the five subsystem types were introduced in Apocrypha 1.1.
Subsystems
The abilities of any one Strategic Cruiser are determined by the subsystems equipped to the ship, and form the backbone of the class. The different Engineering, Offensive, Defensive, Electronics and Propulsion sections each confer different abilities to the ship they are equipped to. One of each subsystem are required to fly a strategic cruiser, and each race maintains its own subsystems.
