The Wolverine, Tachyon+ class Patcom is best for Strike and Heavy Escort.
It is also effective for quick strikes at enemy bases.

This new design is well protected from missiles by it’s Point Defence Turret and also carries 3 Missile types.
Most noticeable is the “Fake Decoy Blast Missile” which looks and sounds like a smart decoy flare. Many fighter pilots have been tricked by this disguise and lost their ships on multiple occasions!

The Dual “Heavy pulsed PBCs” have about 12 KM range and can destroy small fighter craft with two solid hits.
Dual Cyro cooled Rapid fire PBCs  with a range of 7 km are for close work and have a fairly wide firing arc.

Remember, the Wolverine is fairly large and therefore not too hard to hit. A strike run against an armed station is best using the corkscrew attack: i.e Roll your ship and apply full thrusters to one side while still aiming your nose at the target.

Save your missiles for attacking Guard bots and other defenders. Use them when you are out of range of an enemy bases PDTs

The Wolverines missile bays can be fully reloaded and the ship repaired by docking to a Base or Station.
If you dock to a friendly Pioneer utility ship you will be reloaded and repaired to 60% of capacity.
