I'm finishing up odd and end skills to lvl 4 and 5 ... about to make the final push to learn skills for a Raven (eg., cruise missiles, torps, & large turrets). I guess I'm curious about what drones people fit? The 75m3 drone bay seems to suggest:
3 x 25m3 drones
5 10m3 drones and 1 25m3 drone (eg., a web drone)
I'm asking so I can train the appropriate drone skills, so that my Raven does not fall quick prey to fast frigates.
Thanks,
P

I am going with 5 x Medium drones. Drones are there to take out the small stuff, while the cruise missiles and torps take out the big stuff.

Careful. I don't think you can fly more than 5 drones, unless you are a carrier pilot.
On the other hand, you can keep a sixth drone as a spare incase one gets blowed up.

Or you can carry different drones for different resistances. EM for shields, explosive for armor, etc

Some people carry five lights and five mediums. That gives you good flexibility against small, fast targets like interceptors while still giving some punch against cruisers.
Some people carry seven mediums, using the extra two as spares or to vary damage types.
If you know you're going to be fighting heavier ships, the most powerful combination of drones you can fit in 75 m3 is two heavies, two mediums, and one light.
It all depends on who you think your targets are going to be.

5x Hammerhead I or II's is really good, they will take care of most anything within 25 to 30km (with the right skills). They also attract missiles, which is very useful against NPC Mercs in Lvl 2 and 3 missions. They are inexpensive and make good fooder.
The 'Point' Protection of these allows you to concentrate on blowing the stuff out of higher class NPC ships with 80m+ range cruise missiles.
Cheers
