The Osprey Navy Issue, occasionally referred to as the Nosprey (or NOsprey), is similar to a Caracal. It is a shield-tanked missile cruiser, but it is significantly faster than a Caracal. Because of its boosted speed, it can be quite effective at kiting. It is important to note that the NOsprey's bonuses are geared towards kinetic missiles: it can use other damage type missiles also, although gets a reduced bonus whilst using them. Note that a Caracal does almost all the same things, for much less ISK.
Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Osprey Navy Issue for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.
The Osprey Navy Issue, because of its speed and missile velocity bonuses, is great for kiting. It can be either HML or HAM fit to take advantage of its bonuses. It is also a viable missile sniper using HMLs.
With Caldari Cruiser V, the ship will have 6 effective turrets whilst using Scourge missiles, and 5 effective turrets whilst using any other damage type.
