Ship Builds & Load Outs Eagle - 2Mcr boredom buster (RES BH fit)

[eza]

When popping Anacondas in RESes feels all too easy in your big expensive ship, why not try taking them on with an Eagle instead?

It'll take longer to rake in the credits, but in an Eagle it's so much fun!

Here's my favourite fit for RES bounty hunting:

[Eagle]
S: 1G/T Pulse Laser
S: 1F/F Pulse Laser
S: 1F/F Pulse Laser
U: 0C Kill Warrant Scanner

BH: 1I Military Grade Composite
RB: 2A Power Plant
TM: 3A Thrusters
FH: 3A Frame Shift Drive
EC: 1D Life Support
PC: 2A Power Distributor
SS: 2D Sensors
FS: 2C Fuel Tank (Capacity: 4)

3: 3A Shield Generator
2: 2B Shield Cell Bank
1: 1B Shield Cell Bank


Cargo and FSD low priority as usual.
Have the SCBs priority 1 but powered off.
Have KWS priority 2 and run the scan, then power on one SCB before beginning your attack.
Oh and don't get hit, the Eagle can't take it ;-)

(Switch the turret laser for a multicannon if you don't mind going back to reload. Personally I always use lasers because I can be in a RES for hours.)

I fly gimballed multicannons, fixed beam on roof. Not bothered about SCBs. She's one fantastic little animal, such joie de vivre!

Also, urban camo. Free horsepower. Like racing stripes

I still love the Eagle, great little ship - but a fitting like this does expose it's weakness against bigger targets as a bounty hunting ship.

The lack of a second utility slot means that if the enemy decides to run you have no way of following them - with the lack of a wake scanner. For that reason the Vulture is my new favourite bounty hunter ship (with the Cobra now a close second).

Other than that, a good solid Eagle fit.
