=== Covert Ops Ships ===

There is a limited set of ships allowed to fit and use the Covert Ops Cloaking Device, all of them either Frigate or Cruiser sized (except the [[Tholos~~]] &~~ the [[Cenotaph]]). As noted on the page on [[Jump drives#Covert Cynosural Fields|Jump Drives]], this is also the set of ships allowed to use Covert Jump Bridges, and (except for the [[Astero]], [[Stratios]], [[Tholos]] and [[Cenotaph]]) fit Covert Cynosural Field Generators.

Line 76:

To prevent situations where a ship is vulnerable to instant death before its client finishes loading into a new system, Jump Cloak (or Gate Cloak) is an effect automatically applied to every ship that jumps through a stargate or wormhole. Jump Cloak renders the ship invisible, and invulnerable, until it expires. A ship protected by Jump Cloak cannot be decloaked, damaged, or displaced by any outside means. Jump Cloak lasts for 60 seconds, starting when the server registers the jump completing, or until the cloaked ship attempts to move or enter warp. The time remaining is visible via a blue icon in the top left, as shown in the image.

It is often a good idea to take full advantage of the 60 seconds of protection to look at the other ships on grid, player names in Local chat, or objects visible on [[~~Directional~~ scan]], and assess the best course of action. Be advised however, that while a ship protected by jump cloak is invisible and invulnerable, its pilot's name ''will'' still appear in Local chat, potentially alerting enemies to its arrival.
