Just a suggestion as a stealth armor mech can effectively shut down lock on weapons. Perhaps instead of an all-or-nothing scenario since BAP/UAV can't nullify active stealth armor either make active stealth armor not jam lock ons on nearby mechs or just make it so it increases the time to lock on. It would be more in line with ECM not being the end-all-be-all counter to lock on weapons. Stealth armor is pretty good enough without this ability and not having a No Signal effect would make the mech even stealthier since enemies wouldn't even know it's there.

I dont think stealth Jams onlocks
Its stealthed, invisible to lock on systems
so nothing to lock on to, not jammed

I never noticed an ecm jamming bubble type field when close
I will check

@OzHomerOz. Oh the jam effect is real, I just am not bothered by the inconvenience it causes missile users. A streak or ATM mech cannot acquire or maintain lock if within 90-100 meters of a stealth mech, even if the intended target is not the stealth mech and BAP and or TAG is being employed.

Its a perfectly fine bonus to stealth IMHO.

This is often the only indication that a stealth mech is near buy. It would make it a bit to powerful to take this away.
