Armor Tanking Skills
If you want to fit armor buffer tanks or active armor tanks you’ll want to train armor support skills and be able to fit T2 armor tanking modules. Armor tanking is popular for PvP.
To fit T2 modules, train Mechanic and Hull Upgrades to level V. This is the Armor Tanking Certification-Improved.
