This low-powered ship does damage equal to (full damage * ( (101 - target health percentage) * 10 ) ). This makes it very effective at finishing off high-health targets when mixed into a regular fleet, but it's barely able to hurt enemy ships that aren't wounded.
Youngling ships are all exceedingly inexpensive and fast, with a very short life span (health automatically |

How to use in your fleet
Neinzul Youngling Vulture are unique and likely always useful against any target (not just large ones): its cap-DPS starts at 60K*Mark/sec against an enemy with 100% health and skyrockets to 6M*Mark/sec at 0%. This is nothing to scoff at, even against Hunter/Killers with their Command-Grade hull. Since this scale is percentage-based, a single Vulture-I can KO a standard fleet-ship-I anywhere below ~60% health (which makes it scary if targeting is optimal).
Therefore, get them interspersed in your fleet, and watch as lower-mark opposition melts away. The key is to dish-out enough damage for the scaling to take over, perhaps something Spirecraft Attritioners and other AOE-effects might help accomplish. Conversely, against large targets Vultures' ideal companions are ships that have high-damage/long-cool down (and also Spirecraft Implosion Artillery, since they do maximum damage at full health).
How to counter when in the AI fleet
It's not that special a ship aside from the damage-scaling, and fairly useless on its own. Using ship-types with Neutron-bonuses will help you prevent the snowball-effect from taking place. Players might also watch out for their own Golems during battle, and retreat them before they fall into red health.
