Stealth Plating

==Information==
Prerequisites: Pending
Research Cost: Pending
Stealth Plating is a layer of sensor-resistant material that can be fitted to Starships, increasing their Stealth capabilities and resistance to sensor detection.
The Stealth Plating provides an addition 10% SDU of Hull to the starship as Stealth Plating. The Min/Max of Stealth plating is 10%. Each point of SDU of stealth plating has a cost in Credits, Metal and Rare Materials.
===Game Effects:===
* Sensors can only detect the craft if they are within 0 to 3 grids of the vessel, decrease by 1 more if Sensor Jammer is also active.
* Target Lock difficulty is increased.
* To Hit Difficulty is increased, especially for guided weapons like missiles & torpedoes. 
* Starship registers as vessel two sizes smaller, this also applies to hitting/combat.
* Starship type/class undeterminable unless within 0-2 grids of vessel, registers only as Unknown-class of size two sizes smaller (ie: Unknown-class vessel size medium) beyond 2 range.
* 10% of all Hull Damage from combat will be applied to the Stealth Plating, if Stealth Plating drops below 50% it starting total then benefits no longer effective until repaired/replaced.
