I believe this is wrong. Tachyons max out at 81% cloaking effectiveness. A 98% cloaked fleet is only 80% cloaked against maxxed tachyons (0.81x0.98).

A single peerless scanner with tachyons would see a cloaked fleet at 100 lys. A nub with a stack of 3 peerless would see a cloaked fleet at 130lys. A nub with 3 peerless and 3 elephant would see a bit further plus see cloaked fleets over a planet at 50 lys.

In the end you can fit a nub with all the necessary cloaks and tachyons and still have room for two stacks of scanners (elephant and peerless). These make it impossible to sneak up on and in practice it makes the enemy avoid wasting resources on cloaking so that you actually see what is going on out to 260lys even over planets.

Yes, my bad, I think you are right. I'll adjust my original post, don't want to leave bad info out there

But still. We shouldn't really be assuming peerless scanners anyway - it's el24. A stack of three Eagle eye scanners gets us 440ly, about 88ly then against a max cloaked fleet. Still short of the magic 100ly, and expensive to form a network of scanners to watch a whole border. Same ship with NAS scans 176ly, so my point still stands. A ship with five Eagle eyes can see 100ly though... But again, we need high tech for this - nubians to get max tachyons, so even this much is only possible with con26. NAS is definately still usefull for IS.
