The Malefactor Type-2 is the upgraded (i.e. advanced) version of the Malefactor Type-1 stealth ship. Costing 45,000 merits, the Malefactor Type-2 has more engines (gaining 1 extra engine slot), greater electronic warfare capability (1 extra computer slot, and a stronger firewall), as well as greater hull points, greater speed and acceleration, and more power than the Malefactor Type-1. It is only able to use the equipment that is unique to the stealth ship (i.e. weapons, hull, engines and computer) items but otherwise uses the regular consumables (i.e. ammunition, missiles) that other strikes use.
It should be noted that the Malefactor is unable to equip transponder arrays, nor is it able to fire nuclear missiles nor nuclear torpedoes from its launchers.
To purchase the Malefactor Type-2, talk to Number Eight/Sharon in the CIC of the Basestar in 242 Apollid, or at any Cylon Outpost.

In-game Description[]
"The Type-2 Malefactor is a second generation stealth fighter. While the initial combat performance of the Malefactor showed promise, the harassment of the Cylon fleet by Admiral Cain and the Pegasus prompted the Cylons to expand on the combat capabilities of the Malefactor. The Type-2 Malefactor builds on the Type-1's capabilities adding a missile launcher hard point and improved engines for speed and maneuverability."
