Indeed, that's what I think. Unfortunately, such might be only possible at earliest next year in .88 ...

Got my vote. Are there any game modders who would like to weigh in on this? After all, you lot would be the ones to know if this is even possible.

The idea is great, it just looks like it will be a bit too overpowered. No missile tracking, and no fuel consumption. Maybe make it use weapon energy?
RE: New cloak idea - Johnathan Nox Carter - 02-12-2013
It already said it makes you unable to shoot or cruise (and perhaps even unable to thrust, if needed)... not to mention you don't become invisible... basically it's not overpowered since it takes away very much, just as it gives much. Ok, you will be harder to hit, that's true, but you won't be able to use it to actually escape if someone continues to look at you and follow, and if you plan on going away on a base: the pvp-death/dock rule still applies if someone is looking/shooting at you. Still, escaping in a nebula or something is possible, and as far as i'm concerned is pretty much realistic and normal RP-wise.

Wait till miners in O7 get it
I can see all kinds of cool possibilities with this. I approve.

thats rolf...really. Thus idea is cool and me likes. but Major loop holes need to get fixed.

I am actually in love with this idea.
I'd trade out my light cloak for one of these any day.

This is not a cloak what you are reffering to. What you are reffering to is a jammer. However, Jammers dont make stuff go slower.
Cloak is always in visseble.

I know this is a bit off topic but it borders on the same concept. I'd love to see more types of equipment for electronic warfare. Like jammers to, like this idea entails, remove you from the contact list. More powerful scanners especially built to see through a jammer (but weaker in some other aspects) and so on.
Of course I have no idea what aspects can actually be modded in the game, but maybe even something to scramble communications, making that Cap that gets caught all alone somewhere unable to call for backup if it decides to fly without protection.
Electronic warfare and electronic countermeasures would bring a lot to the table when it comes to tactics in big fights as well as small engagements.
The OP idea is a great start, got my vote.
