==Summary==
== 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 ([[Skills:Electronic_Systems#Cloaking|Cloaking]] IV), or torpedo launchers ([[Skills:Missiles#Torpedoes|Torpedoes]] I).
