Specifically engineered to fire torpedoes, stealth bombers represent the next generation in covert ops craft. The bombers are designed for sneak attacks on large vessels with powerful missile guidance technology enabling the torpedoes to strike faster and from a longer distance.

SHIP BONUSES

Minmatar Frigate bonuses (per skill level):
10% bonus to Torpedo flight time
15% bonus to Torpedo max velocity
Covert Ops bonuses (per skill level):
5% bonus to explosive Bomb damage
15% bonus to explosive Torpedo damage
Role Bonus:
99.65% reduction in Torpedo Launcher powergrid requirement
50% reduction in Cloaking Devices CPU requirement
• No targeting delay after Cloaking Device deactivation
• Can fit Covert Ops Cloaking Device, Covert Cynosural Field Generator and Bomb Launcher
• Cloak reactivation delay reduced to 15 seconds

Summary

The Hound is the Minmatar Stealth Bomber. It is bonused for explosive torpedoes and bombs. Stealth Bombers are mostly quite similar, but the Hound's unique selling point is its speed and agility, which makes it a good bomber since it is more likely to make its escape after bombing.

Skills

While the skills above will allow you to 'fly' the Hound it is pointless to fly a Stealth Bomber without a covert ops cloaking device (Cloaking  IV), or torpedo launchers (Torpedoes  I).

Suggested Skills:

In addition, you will want to get missile launcher skills as high as possible, as well as Bomb Launching skills. These skills include:

Tactics

Like all stealth bombers, the Hound is designed for surprise attacks against specific targets. A general guide to stealth bombers is available here.
