The Frigate Escape Bay is a unique cargo bay, introduced in the March 2020 update<ref>[https://www.eveonline.com/article/q6z2qy/patch-notes-for-march-2020-release Patch Notes for March 2020 Release]</ref> and present on all battleships. It enables a battleship to hold one fully assembled and fitted Tech 1, Pirate or Empire Faction, [[Assault Frigate|Assault]], [[Electronic Attack Ship|Electronic Attack]], or [[Logistics Frigate|Logistics]] [[Frigate]]. If a frigate is inside the bay when the battleship is destroyed, the pilot will be ejected ''in the frigate'' instead of their capsule. The frigate inside the Escape Bay can also be manually jettisoned into space, and attempting to board an unpiloted battleship while in a frigate will load that frigate into the battleship's escape bay (if it is empty).

Similar to ships stored in Ship Maintenance Bays, a frigate stored in the Escape Bay can only be carrying ammunition, Isotopes, and Strontium.
Similar to the restrictions on ships stored in Ship Maintenance Bays, a frigate stored in the Escape Bay can only carrying ammunition, Fuel Isotopes, and Strontium as cargo.
