I wouldn't say that a Caracal could reliably trash any AF. I would venture to say that yes, a Caracal could take down AFs. As with any fight, it has a lot to do with pilot skill, setups, SPs, etc.

Yes, but keep in mind that you'll almost need Tech II assault missile launchers to take out some of the harder targets. A good idea is a passive tank, dual webifiers, and of course Tech II Assault Missile Launchers with the proper missiles (Javelins works nicely).
Although sometimes you'll still get the following to happen...

A Caracal with the right missile loaded has a good chance of killing an assault frigate, and extremely good chance of killing an interceptor.
From a 30km start a Caracal was almost able to kill my Jaguar with Bloodclaw Standard Missiles.
From a 15km start I ripped him a new one..
I barely beat a light missile caracal in my 400mm plated Claw once.. he was a newbie though.
So it all depends. :)

As long as you use the missiles (Em or Explosive) for the type of tank they are you should be fine. AF's dont have the slots to get the low resist up to above 80% like the rest.

one of the best way to kill AFs is to web/nos them and shoot drone at them , than watch your drone they might shoot at them ;)
drop an ishkur with t2 light drone with my thorax like this... was kinda fun! ;)

Owned multiple caracals with my Enyo, also ECM set-up. But only because they didnt know what they were up after. If they had NOS + webs and some drone skills, i would have died. So its the setup that matters really. Should you set up you cara for AF ownage, you will have trouble killing anything other than that. ---

Ide say it depends on the af pilot, a skilled pilot will take you down in a caracal no matter what however if you setup your caracal with damage specific assaults then you wont go down without a fight

yeh i dont even get why people talk about af vs cruisers...
5X heavy launcher 2 (precision)
2X large shieldextender 2 em hardener invul warp disruptor
and you will kill af in 3 vollies while have 9k shield with good recharge and resistances.
With assault launchers even easies and A LOT cheaper.
Its great being gallente , aint it? _________________________________________________

im not sure if this is off topic or not, but i dont think caracals are that great for anything but mish running, i bet my RL friend 500k isk that i could take 2 volleys of t2 precisons, with t2 assaults, and i ended up taking 24 missiles in my RIFTER, and i think a wolf or a jag would have enough to take out a cara, just my 2 isk tho

most cruisers can trash af's if you fit a webber. Caracals more so. Assault launchers eat afs really quick

AF vs cruiser depends so much on skills and fitting that there wont be a unambiuous answere. (as most fights)

Outcome will depend completely on the skill of the pilots involved and the fitting of the 2 ships.

As fleet support and in small gangs an anti-frig caracal can be very effective against tacklers (t2 assaults and precision light missiles).

Even that depends on the setup used by the AF and which flavour of precision missiles is used. (try using some kin precisions on an AF that is tanked to counter caldari and see for yourself how much dmg comes through)

Yes.
20km Scram, a large extender or 2, and hardeners.
You're going to out range them unless they want to hit you for **** damage and be unable to scram you., and an AF isn't going to outrun light missiles very often, if ever.
Painter or two and heavy missiles also wtfbbqs them.
