Specific vs common sensors ?

Now for the practicalities….
1) Long Range Scanners
...

When you are in combat, you can see the components and cargo of a ship no matter what. In these cases, "long range" scanners are redundant, and Scanner Jammers are defeated.
In fact, cloaked ships in the same sector as a combat will also be detected. (If no combat occurs, the cloaked ships can slip past unnoticed)

2) You also say

-------b) cloak our fleet
No. You need either Stealth Armor or a Cloaking Device on each ship to cloak the fleet. Scanners only defeat enemy cloaks, not cloak your own ships.

Yes like scattering armor to defeat long range scanners and stealth armor to defeat level 1 active/passive scanners

Could you list the various devices which are available to cloak a ship and to defeat the probes of enemy ships?

He did.
Stealth armor.... or "Cloaking Device". That's it in the unmodded game.
Storms can add cloaking, but they aren't a device.
