== The Different Roles of Stealth Bombers ==
From Null to High, the stealth bomber fits in quietly with the fleet.


===Black Ops gang===
===Black Ops===
Bombers can be very effective in gangs of all cloaky ships. Usually, a recon will find and tackle a good target and then call in the rest of the gang, either from the neighboring system, wormhole or by lighting a cyno for a black ops battleship's covert jump portal. In this role, bombers tend to be optimised for torpedoes rather than bombing.

* Recon locates and tackles a target in system A
* The rest of the gang, waiting in the neighboring system, wormhole or by lighting a cyno for a black ops battleship's covert jump portal jumps to the target system
In this role, bombers tend to be optimised for torpedoes rather than bombing.


===Bombing wing===
===Bomber Wing===
A large fleet can be accompanied by a force of bombers. The bomber force acts mostly independently of the main fleet, often with their own FC and as a separate in-game fleet. The bomber wing will try to get bombing runs in on the enemy fleet to destroy, soften up or simply distract them as support for the main fleet. Bombers in this role will be bomb fit.

====Bomb Squadron====
In general usage, a Bombing Squadron is composed of 7 bombers.  It is required that all bombers in the squadron have the same type of bomb.  Ideally, the squadron is homogenous as far as the type of bomber hull.
