Item Database:Ships:Covert Ops

Covert Ops Ships (as well as their larger cousins the Recon Ships and the "blockade runner" variant of Transport Ships) are unique in their ability to fit the Covert Ops Cloaking Device II, which allows them to remain cloaked while warping, while also retaining their maximum velocity while cloaked. Covert Ops are generally employed as forward scouts in fleet movements in order to monitor enemy forces with impunity.

There are two types of Covert Ops ships. One of them has bonuses to astrometrics skills, allowing them to probe down ships with ease. These ships are able to fit the Covert Ops Cloaking Device II module. Stealth Bombers can mount Cruise Missile Launchers and have a bonus to their explosion radius, allowing them to hit smaller targets for more damage. These ships cannot fit a Covert Ops cloak.
