With the addition of even more cloaking ships coming, in the form of Black-ops BS, it would be nice to have a dedicated anti-cloaking ship.
The destroyers seam to be the least loved of ships, so it would be nice to use a destroyer class model, that fits a new anti-cloaking mod.
The anti-cloak mod would be a high slot and once activated would decloak any ship within 20k. The mods range would stack with each mod used on the ship, so fitting 2 will decloak out to 40k, fitting 4 will reach out to 80k. A full 8 hi-slots on a destroyer fitted with them would decloak any ship within 160k.
They could have some crazy fitting requirement that the new destroyer would negate to insure its used only on them.
This would give a nice ship dedicated to hunting all the black-ops ships, and help fleets insure they have no covert-ops spys around.
Just seams like a job that isn't filled by anyone yet, and would be very useful in a fleet or small gang.

I don't think I agree. First off the Black Ops BS cost is going to be in the region of 1 billion isk (and most likely more). In addition it is likely to have a very large skill trg requirement - yet it can be found by a destroyer?
Perhaps a TII / TIII 'Surveillance' Battle Cruiser could fill this type of role, with bonuses to scan probes, & an EMP style launcher to dig out cloaked ships - then you might be on the right sort of path imo.

Actually there is nothing wrong with ships having the ability to find Cloaked ships. But it shouldnt be a modual, should be built in to all ships to a lesser or greater degree depending on their type.
As for the Blacks Ops BS, if you are found sitting off a gate with that thing, you probably shouldnt be flying it. You should be way off or at a SS.

The range is too big, there's no effective counter, pretty much trashes the ability of covert ops ships to scout and makes all cloaks only useful for sitting afk at a safespot. Not a good change.
