    I sense that your question had a humorous intent but the only logical answer I can give is No.

    The Fed cloaking device only fits on the Dreadnought Cruiser(Galaxy-X), Tactical Escort Retrofit(Defiant), Avenger Battle Cruiser, Fleet Avenger Battle Cruiser.

    I sense that the only purpose of this thread is to troll the KDF and that the OP isn't actually interested in the cloaking device.

    +1 on the cappuccino machine. Heck, I'll even throw in a raktajino machine so the OP can get that Klingon flavor. :P

    How about no. Why? Because Fed aren't supposed to have cloaking devices, outside of the ships that canonically used them (Gal-X + Defiant. Avenger should not be able to cloak, period). End of discussion.

    This is like the third thread whining about the Fed Dyson ship - or Feds in general - not having cloaking devices. It's getting boring, people.
    You're just a machine. And machines can be broken.

    Well, Canon wise Federation ships did not have a cloaking device because of treats. Now there's no reason they could not, except that the flavor for the faction has not typically included it, and most of the ships we play in the game are 40-150 or more years old and probably are not compatable. If you recall, they had some trouble with the cloak on the defiant, and for at least a while, it was not a terribly effective one (probably because the Romulans gave them an odler model).

    That being said, while I could probably live if the Dyson ship had a cloak, I am not so sure that it should.

    could always use a battle cloak upgrade on my defiant, make it very flexible in combat, all thats missing is boffs with decloak damage buff. but since thats a pipe dream like most fed ships with a cloak because of the treaty of algeron.

    FYI, the defiant was the only fed ship to have a cloak in the prime universe for any meaningful time until its destruction, even this was subject to romulan demands. the gal-x never actually happened, so why thats in game was probably just a filler for a quick cash grab then any sort of canonical sense. but since sto is not about canonical sense, maybe the treaty should be abolished and get federation battle cloaking devices on all ships. it would make general chang blush with envy.

    You, sir, just changed my view on federation cloak.

    Cryptic, please give the fed dyson ship and the Odysee a cloak. And let it work in sector space. And automatically activate. And work also towards allied ships....

    The Romulan version of the Science Destroyer will be hands down the best version of the Ship with the Klingon version coming in a distant 2nd and the fed version will hardly be worth the thought IMO.

    I honestly don't see why new ships made now can't have the permission to use the cloaking device. The treaty with the Romulans is out, and a Cloaking device would be very useful for a stealth build.

    hmm...cloaks are the sci-fi equivalent of submarines. Britain has submarines, America has submarines. I suspect Canada and Australia do to, though I've never looked it up. Russia, Germany, France, Japan... so who are "the good guys"? Bolivia and Paraguay? ;)

    Its not my argument, its Gene Roddenberrys.

    And Gene Roddenberrys vision of the future that Star Trek is supposed to be is about an ethically further advanced humanity.
    For example, all the nations you mentioned have war ships. The Federation does not (beside the Defaint that had cloak.... but that was introduced after Roddenberrys death and caused enough outrage among fans back then...).
