I am curious if the Blackbird is capable of traveling at warp while cloaked. I know Spec Ops can. I'm looking to get one as a scout.

Only ships specially designed to fit a covops cloak can fit one. This limits it to force recons, bombers, covops frigs, blockade runners, and specifically configured T3s. No T1 ships can use covops cloaks.

I beg to differ.

The Blackbird can not Warp while cloaked.

The only way to travel under cloak in warp is by using the module (Covert Ops Cloaking Device II) or the Smokescreen variant.

The only ships that can use this module are the following.

Covert Ops

* Buzzard
* Helios
* Anathema
* Cheetah

Stealth Bomber

* Manticore
* Hound
* Purifier
* Nemesis

Force Recon

* Falcon
* Rapier
* Arazu
* Pilgrim

Blockade Runner

* Prorator
* Crane
* Viator
* Prowler

Stratigic Cruiser * With the Covert Operations Subsystem Equipped

* Tengu
* Legion
* Loki
* Proteus

What poster above said. In particular, you're probably looking for Falcon. Basically, it's an expencive Blackbird that can use CovOps cloaking device.

P.S. Dat blackops titan... New travel fit anyone?

Future of T3 cruisers - multi-tool they aspired to be instead of sledgehammer they have become

Yeah, it would be perfect tbh, you'd still need to watch for fast decloakers after jumping through those gates while you allign.
I personally find hisec gate travel is much safer with my titans anyway, but the covops cloak could come in handy in case you run into one of those 5000 tornado suicide gatecamps.

It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

You have multiple titans? Wow, that's awesome. It's kind of weird I've never seen a titan use gates before. I've never seen one in high sec either. I'm also a little confused about the part where a cloak is going to help a 20km long ship slip through a gatecamp.

Are you sure you're not just making this up?

Oh god.
