Hey all, looked around and couldn't find a specific answer....so here's the question.

Can a Black Ops ship be used to Jump Portal a cloaky transport from High Sec to Null?

I know you can jump a JF from High to Null...but not the other way around...

I know you cannot open a Cyno in high sec space....

Just wondering in order to bypass a few systems that are have their gates perma-camped....getting out isn't the problem, but they have cloaky sabres, recon/covert ops on the null sec side, and look out alts on the high sec side.

Any help appreciated...thanks

Any ship that can fit a covert ops cloak can be bridged so yeah, you can bridge blockade runners to a cyno/covert cyno within range of the Black Ops.

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

Yes, you can bridge out from high-sec.

The pursuit of excellence and stabbed plexing alts.

You basically need 3 pilots to do this. The cloaky hauler, a Black Ops battleship to make the bridge, and a ship to light the cyno. You can jump out of high-sec. You can't to high sec because you can't light the cyno in high-sec.

A carrier might be a better option if you simply want to be able to move stuff into null. You only need 2 pilots instead of 3, a carrier can hold more cargo, and your second account just needs cyno I and a noob ship instead of cyno V and a CovOps.

Cloaky haulers are vital for Black Ops logistics but for standard logistics there is a reason most people just use carriers or jupm freighters.

Unless the player is Caldari. Then they cannot get out from underneath their bridge.

Just to add:

Black Ops jump drives won't let you jump too far. Range is limited.
