=== Stealth Bombers ===
=== Stealth Bombers ===
Stealth bombers are very specialised ships which can warp cloaked and don't have a sensor recalibration delay preventing them from locking targets after decloaking. They can fit torpedo launchers and bomb launchers (although [[Bombs|bombs]] -- devastating area-effect weapons -- can only be used in [[0.0|nullsec]]). Stealth bombers put out extraordinary [[alpha]] damage and die very fast if anyone manages to put some damage on them, so will typically fire a single salvo then recloak. They are the bane of large ships, especially in nullsec. In groups and flown well, stealth bombers can take down a capital ship.

Each race's stealth bomber is based on the hull of that race's missile frigate (the Gallente Nemesis is based on the Tristan hull) and has a damage bonus for bombs and torpedoes which do its race's associated [[NPC Damage Types|damage type]].
