Covert Ops frigates can warp while cloaked, and have bonuses to scanning and hacking. As [[scouting|scouts]] they can stealthily gather intelligence and use their scanning bonus to probe out enemy targets. They can watch enemy targets while in cloak and provide a warp coordinate for a much larger gang of heavy hitting ships in an organized surprise attack. Explorers can use the same scanning bonus to probe down PvE [[exploration]] sites. Due to their extreme fragility, cov-ops frigates should not generally be used in a tackling role, and are typically invisible at all times. | Covert Ops frigates can warp while cloaked, and have bonuses to scanning and hacking.
