Take a stealth fighter, hack apart the insides and replace them with anti-base missiles, and you have the stealth bomber. Like the sf, the sb excels at stealth attacks, this time specialising against enemy stations. They excel at destroying refineries and teleports before the defenders react. Against larger stations there low number of AB missiles per rack (2) and low hitpoints means they will surely be destroyed before succeeding, and thus must deploy in groups and attack at the same time.

There is also the nerve gas sb available which can capture enemy stations. However most commanders never research it because the NG sb costs a lot, requires other pilots to take down the shields first, has a higher signature, has a lower range, and requires a lot longer to arm the missile - which all adds up to needing a very experienced group of pilots to be successful.

As an ad interim measure, you can use [img] tags. See the list of pictures which need to be retaken for more images that need help.

Bios stealth bomber	Bios Nothing special
Belters stealth bomber	Belters Can mount light/ion booster and regular booster. Can not mount small shield Has 100% more hitpoints
Image coming soon	Dreghklar Empire Nothing special
Ga'Taraan Federation stealth bomber	Ga'Taraan Federation Nothing special
GigaCorp stealth bomber	GigaCorp Nothing special
Rixian Unity stealth bomber	Rixian Unity Instead of using missiles the pilot gets station drones (researched under tac) in their dispenser slot. These drones shoot whatever the pilot was targeting when he deployed them - obviously you want that to be the enemy base! The rix sb can also carry all types of probes and mines in the dispenser slot.
Iron Coalition stealth bomber	Iron Coalition 20% cost reduction.
Technoflux stealth bomber	Technoflux Gets a third weapon slot (sniper or util) Instead of using missiles the pilot can mount either A-B cannon or Ion blaster (researched under tac) in his first weapon slot. Unlike the flux sf, does not have a dispenser slot.
