Covert Ops Cloaking Device II

Covert Ops Cloaking Device II A very specialized piece of technology the covert ops cloak is designed for use in tandem with the covert ops frigate. Although it could theoreticaly work on other ships its spatial distortion field is so unstable that trying to compensate for its fluctuations would overwhelm even the largest standard ship computers. Note: Fitting two or more cloaking devices to a ship negates their use, as unsynchronized light deflection causes interference.

The following ships can use this module:

• Covert Ops frigates
• Force Recon cruisers
• Blockade runners
• Stealth Bombers
• Strategic Cruisers (Tech 3) fitted with the Covert Reconfiguration Subsystem

The Cover Ops Cloaking Device II (or Covops Cloak) makes it possible for the above to move at full speed and warp around while cloaked. While the cloak is active, other pilots are also unable to scan the ship out using either the onboard scanner or scan probes.

Covert Ops cloaks have an advantage over almost any other cloaking device. That being the ability to warp the ship while cloaked. This ability makes it easier to sneak up on unsuspecting prey while warping freely about the system. This lends itself well to covert warfare, and is a tactic employed heavily today.
