This is a basic T1 setup for use in a PvP-BASIC Hydra gang.
 
  
−
The kestrel has quite limited powergrid, making fitting standard missiles difficult. Fitting a Micro Auxiliary Power Core solves this problem (although you need Energy Management IV to fit it). A standard missile kestrel may not have the raw damage output of the rocket variant, however it makes up for this by having exceptional range, while still dealing damage on par with other combat frigates.
 
  
−
Due to the size of PvP-BASIC fleets, this setup is usually preferred over [[T1 Hydra Kestrel|the rocket variant]]. This setup is more difficult to fit (requires a Micro Auxiliary Power Core) and deals less damage, however it has much longer range, allowing you to start dealing damage sooner.

Be advised that the Kestrel does not have capacitor to get across some larger systems, so you'll need to be paying attention ''before'' this happens so as not to get lost.

'''Please have several of the following modules in stock at class start location.''' You will have to adjust the 2 EWAR midslots as needed to balance the fleet so make sure to bring 2 of each of these electronic warfare modules with you per frigate hull that you buy. Because ewar modules are CPU intensive you may want to bring a co-processor along. You will also need to use scripts with some ewar modules (dampeners and tracking disrupters) so make sure to bring along one of each kind of script per ewar module that you buy and bring.

Note: This setup requires Energy Management IV to be able to fit a MAPC. It also requires Electronics IV and Weapon Upgrades III, or Electronics III and Weapon Upgrades IV.
