After a bit of thought, something occured to me about the Peleus sequence in WC4. When the cloaking capship that is the source of the sensor jamming is destroyed, the space station Tolwyn is seen leaving decloaks.
Does Tolwyn essentially turn out the lights on his way out (realizing the Peleus operation is a bust) and decloak the station? (which is maybe a Black Lance base being abandoned?)
Or is the cloak of the station connected to the Jammer ship? The movie is shot in a way that implies this, but technologicaly doesnt seem feasable. I dont remember what the novel says, but would a ship that is broadcasting a signal significantly strong enough to disrupt major electrical systems in quite a large area also be able to remotely power a cloak large enough to shroud a station?
I just don't see the ship as being able to physicaly cloak the station itself.
