Can the covert ops ships scan at all while cloaked? "no more damn DESERTS!" |

You can't drop a probe cloaked, but once it is down, you can scan cloaked. Just don't warp anywhere until the scan is done.
You can also warp off and scan from a new location.

Yes, and they have fixed the former UI bug that happened when you pressed the scan button while in warp. You can now scan while warping, while moving, while doing anything you like, cloaked or uncloaked. You have to de-cloak to launch the probe, but that only takes a couple seconds if you are at full speed when you do it.

Can you cargo scan and is there a scanner fro ship fitting or armamaent in the game? Im really just trying to understand the purpose of the non-bomber covert ops "no more damn DESERTS!" |

No.
And the purpose of the covops is to scout. It does this because of two things:
1) It can fit the covops cloak and warp while cloaked, while the stealth bomber can't.
2) It has a huge scan time bonus, which means with good skills, you can find a target in under 30 seconds.

SO, for instance, able to warp in to a system while cloaked, see the number and ship type of the enemy and then warp out? Is there a way to find out COVERTLY how the targets are fitted or tanked? Members of the gang or fleet can jump to you too yes? (albeit in the same system unless using those new black ops boats right) "no more damn DESERTS!" |

No. You can't target while cloaked. So, you can't use ship scanners. Just not possible.

Warp. They can warp to you (same way you can warp to any fleet member).
