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.

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 ([[Skills:Electronic Systems#Cloaking|Cloaking]] IV), or torpedo launchers ([[Skills:Missiles#Torpedoes|Torpedoes]] I).

'''Version 18.11 - Build: 1852074 - 2020-11-24.1''' - ''Explosive Velocity Update'' ([https://www.eveonline.com/article/qjkugs/patch-notes-for-version-18-11 Patch Notes])

:''Also, as part of this update, Stealth Bombers will be balanced in light of the changes to torpedoes, and will see their bonus to maximum torpedo velocity reduced slightly, and their bonus to explosion velocity removed.'' - [https://www.eveonline.com/article/qjzko9/explosive-velocity-new-update CCP Dopamine, announcement post]
