PS: if you drop a cloaked asteroid on a hyperspace lane any ship going in that lane while most likely just crash into it without even knowing what hit it, because it’s normal sensors won’t be able to detect the cloaked mass shadow. btw. that would be a pretty mean trick to take out trade in a system ^^

*Points up at PainRack's post*
Sorry ,must have over read that o.o oh well :/ just expanding and reinforcing the point made by my college.

This makes CGTs very important. However, by the time of NJO, the accuracy and detection capabilities seem to have become accurate enough to work against the Vong.
Nope. If this was true, then the sensor steathed ship they used to spy on the Yuzhan Vong would have been believed to be vulnerable to YV sensors, especially when Star by Star states that SW sensors are still superior to YV sensors.(can't remember the name of the planet or novel. Its the one where Talon Karrde is onboard with the two discredited NRI agents, bringing to them intelligence of the attack on Correllia or Bothawui, that ultimately resulted in the fiasco of Fondor)
