so, this allows the situation in the TOS wherein Kirk sneaks aboard the Romulan vessel, steals the cloak, but that (seems like) all that the feds can really do with it. Ie: they can't really advance the tech much, and probably have only a very limited number of prototypes of Cloaking devices. And, didn't the cloaked fed ships in the later series come on a lend-lease from the Klingons?
thanks,
Alarik

Actually the Trek mod is already setup nicely to allow stealable tech (I've done it myself). The reason being that most racial weapons require a previous racial tech. Simply removing the racial requirement from say Fed Phasers makes them stealable from captured ships. Even if a race steals them they could not further research them because they do not have the required pre-requisite tech.
