I was looking through the statistics of the stealth bomber and it occurred to me that there was no description of reduction in CPU needs for cloaking devices. Can the stealth bomber actually use the Covert Ops Cloaking Device II?

Nope and its not meant to. Tbh even if they could it wouldnt make them any better for fighting. Bombers need a total overhaul and a re-think if they are ever going to be anything more then toys.

TOYS? All frigs are toys, just depends what u go against, the stealth bomber is the new bs do no harm against solution, they do very good damage against bs while the bs can only send FoF missiles on u, since he can't really lock u, crap against most else and they're hard to hit and u can just cloak, uncloak lock a guy launch a volley then cloak again.
Interceptors are good pod killers and support frigs, they can go to a target about as safely as a covert ops can, but the interceptor can do good damage against frigs v the cov ops that can't really do any damage at all.
The Assault Frigs, they're intendend to take on frigs for the bs they're supporting, simple as that and they do a darn good job at it.
Stealth bombers are no tacklers and are yes toys, as people are still learning how to use them, most people with these things are still learning the tactics. Most people were expecting the stealth bomber to use covert ops cloak as it is in the same category but it would probably be too good and would sadly replace the covert ops, as this one would have teeth and fantastic speed.
Toys.... funny word to use as Eve is one...
Stealth bombers are the new hard to hit hard hitters and people have yet to realize it.

You should not post unless you've flown one in the last week. I love the stealth bombers. Only frigate that can kill other frigates a 120k away. (if the pilot is afk or unwilling to warp out)

Yup, base kinetic cruise missile base damage of 500 is bad against other frigates

Explosion radius of 42 on cruise = ownage on almost any frigate. Start out a 100k away they will have to warp out or die.

Im flying the Nemesis, and I love it. Long range and if in trouble as in something is locking u, target damp and damp tracking. Then cloak or continue to launch cruisers.
U can break lock from a Raven from 55km. Then he cant target much or hit anything that moves.
Multible locks on u are troublesome :/ And if somethings hits you, then u are dead, as its made of tin-foil.

I've lost 3 of em so far and your dead on about something that actually gets a target lock+close to op range and your dead.
The only improvement would be double the base hp's on shield and armor, leave the resists alone, and it would be around assault level on the fun factor.
