Sensor Jammer

Description: (Random) Broadcast systems designed to fill enemy sensor channels with static and blocking their ability to gather information both tactically and at long strategic range.
Research Category: CCC Technology
Research Cost: 10,000 Research Points
Required Technology: Battle Computers
Races Allowed: Hiver, Human, Liir, Morrigi, Tarka, Zuul
Effect: Allows construction of Jammer Section.
Notes: Fleets that include a ship using a Jammer Section halve the distance those fleets can be seen at on the Strategic Screen. Jammers also block the discovery of fleet size and composition information. In Tactical combat, ships with Jammer Sections leave a grey fog of war disc on the enemy's sensor map, preventing weapons from using sensors to target ships covered by that disk.
