Idea: Electronic Warfare

[Alex Navajero]

Hello, people,

I've come up with an idea about some things that could bring some fun in the game. Or some pain.
Why we don't have such things like an IFF jammer that makes your IFF invisible to others or a Radar jammer that prevents you from appearing on someone's scanner until you're too close, for example 5k or something. And let it use batteries, of course.
Or.
It would be a cool feature if you could power down your ship and get completely invisible to scanners, or particular scanners, but also being blind, unarmed and unshielded, relying only on visual information. Would be cool to make a HUD disappear too, when power is off.

What do you think? Is it possible at all with the current game engine?

AWACS/ELINT ships have always been a cool idea, but they require some FLHook work to make it doable. Right now, I'm not sure if we have a capable hooker willing of doing the job.
