–In-Game Description

Overview

The Hammerhead is a versatile midline destroyer that performs well both as flagship and escort.

Notes

True to its name, the Hammerhead is all about the head-on engagement owing to its front shield and large amount of forward-facing hardpoints; its side and rear firepower is limited to the four small hybrid turrets. The Extended Shields hullmod will give 360° coverage.

Suggested Strategies and Loadouts

• Skirmisher Variant (custom): This "kinetics 'n missiles" loadout uses its twin Heavy Autocannons to pummel enemy shields and hits them with the Harpoon MRMs when they're vulnerable. Including the Expanded Missile Racks hullmod ensures a sufficient supply of Harpoons for the Hammerhead to get the job done.
