Hello, Taking a bit of a break from 0.0 to bring you a guide for the Kestrel intended for lowsec FW PvP. The Kestrel is a really strong ship that has a lot of favourable match-ups with common and traditional AB/Scram brawl style setups used within Factional Warfare.
If you have any suggestions or requests please let me know in the comments and I'll my best to honour them.

Caldari Navy Mjolnir Rocket x1000
Caldari Navy Inferno Rocket x1000
Caldari Navy Scourge Rocket x1000
Caldari Navy Nova Rocket x1000
Scourge Rage Rocket x1000
Nanite Repair Paste x50
Scourge Javelin Rocket x1000
Total Cost for the ship is about 10-12 million isk. I don't think I ever ended up using Rage or Javelin in any point of the 8+ hours of PvP that I did, so you can probably forego those if you want to save some isk, and 1000 of each missile type is a bit overboard.
Implants used;
3% Mwd Speed, 3% Maximum Shield, 3% reduced explosion radius, 3% Rocket Damage, 3% missile rate of fire. (approx 70mil~~ for the set)
If you don't want to lay down that much isk for the implants, then 3% hull + 3% MWD Speed and 1% Shield HP, 1% rocket damage and 1% rate of fire will cost you under 6mil. The Implants are worthwhile because there is little risk of getting podded in lowsec if you're careful.
