I've often wondered if its viable to fit a stealth bomber for small gangs / faction warfare with small weapons.

For example, would a fit like this be effective.

the damage and tank are generally in line with most T1 frigs but it has the benefit of having a Cov-Ops cloak. I was just wondering if any one has had the same idea / success with this. I know its a little pricey, but its still a hell of a lot cheaper then an Astero for some cloaky frigate warfare.

In a small gang you'll prob do more damage with the torps....

Personally i would go for something like this:

[Manticore, Small Gang]
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II

1MN Microwarpdrive II
Target Painter II
Tracking Disruptor II, Optimal Range Disruption Script
Warp Disruptor II

Prototype 'Arbalest' Torpedo Launcher, Caldari Navy Scourge Torpedo
Prototype 'Arbalest' Torpedo Launcher, Caldari Navy Scourge Torpedo
Prototype 'Arbalest' Torpedo Launcher, Caldari Navy Scourge Torpedo
Covert Ops Cloaking Device II
[empty high slot]

Small Processor Overclocking Unit I
Small Polycarbon Engine Housing I

sit on the outskirts of the fight and stay outa range

No Worries

You could use rockets, I guess the only reason you would is to be a cov cloaky tackler. In that case I would use something like this:

Highs
Cov Ops Cloak
Rocket Launchers

Mids
AB
Scram or Disrupter
Invul
Medium Regolith

Lows
DCU
Nano

Rigs
Em II
Poly II

Cheap implants and you'll get around 7k EHP, instant decloak and tackle, 1k m/s. Putting BCU on is a waste. You'll do more damage per second but against frigs drones you'll pop too fast
