I too like this ship, it is slow but will pound the hell out of ships with missles, if used correctly.

what i use:
4 standard missle launchers, 2 loaded with bloodclaws and 2 loaded with the fire ones (cant remember name).

4 small shield extenders

1 ballistic controller

Awsome set up, just lock and let em fly, great for support ship when helping out freinds which we all make and break in this game.

By the way, havn't gotten to lvl 2 missions yet, but I hear to do them in a frigate you need to be pretty well pimped up.

Role: The Kestrel is a great frigate for pilots of all skill levels. It is one of the slowest combat frigates which makes it less useful as a tackler but it's damage capabilities are rated as one of the highest of all frigate-class ships. It should be used as a anti-frigate ship or a support damage dealer. The Kestrel or kessie, as it is often called affectionately, is also great in pve where it's great range helps alot.

Setup: There are main two ways to setup the kestrel. Rockets or Standard Missiles. Rockets are very close range, fire very quickly and tear apart most of what they meet.
