What the game says about it

In YC114 each major empire faction, having been embroiled in a harrowing, extensive, long-term war, recognized the growing need for support and logistics functionality in their vessels during the kind of protracted interstellar warfare that might otherwise prove exhausting for its participants. In the Caldari State, this led to the redesign and redeployment of the Bantam. The Bantam, a strong and sturdy craft, was originally an extremely effective mining frigate. After its redesign, the Bantam's large structure had to give way for logistics systems that ate up some of its interior room but allowed it to focus extensively on shield support for fellow vessels.

Bantam in EVE Online

This page is the dictionary entry: what the item is, what it weighs, how much room it takes in a hold and - when a blueprint exists - what goes into making one. The numbers come from the game's own data, so they change when CCP patches the game and not before.

Prices are deliberately somewhere else. What something costs is a question about one item in one place at one moment, and its market page answers it properly: best sell, best buy and every order we have stored, region by region.
