Falcon

Falcon Name: Falcon Hull: Blackbird Role: Force Recon Ship Force recon ships are the cruiser-class equivalent of covert ops frigates. While not as resilient as combat recon ships, they are nonetheless able to do their job as reconaissance vessels very effectively, due in no small part to their ability to interface with covert ops cloaking devices and set up cynosural fields for incoming capital ships. Developer: Ishukone Most of the recent designs off their assembly line have provided for a combination that the Ishukone name is becoming known for: great long-range capabilities and shield systems unmatched anywhere else.

The Falcon is the Caldari Force Recon cruiser. It is renowned (and feared) for its powerful ECM abilities.

The Falcon is generally used as a gang support ship in PvP - The most common tactic has the Falcon positioning itself, using its cloak, a safe distance away from the enemy fleet or jump in point before the fight. After the main bulk of the gang engages the enemy, the Falcon uncloaks, and neutralizes key targets using its ECM modules.
