I've always thought that for a long time now it just seems more useful since luth cloak they don't want a useless platform that gives away their position.

Doubt they'd get used for the following reasons:
ECM in the middle of space - unless a station is camping the plat, it would be destroyed quick. Also it helps enemy stealthies too.
ECM at a planet - helps bombers slip past defenses.

No harm is done with it being there and ECM plats serve no tactical purpose.
The only purpose would be to protect supply plats in deep space, but there already impossible to find unless we track the ship itself.
And tracking a kluth ain't easy when they can cloak on exiting a jump, and have a faster JD to boot.

how about a new platform called the cloak enhancer platform.
the plat itself is always visible and effects k'luth ships by decreasing cloak time when in close proximity but does not use ecm or eccm so it will not effect any human ships at all. nor make it easy for human ships to hide in any kind of ecm field since this plat would use different tech.
just a thought

i can already hear the ugto & icc crying
we want a special plat too
what about a completely different platform type?
i proudly present the storage (res) platform:
an engie build it like any normal platform
once it's finished other players could deposit resources into the platform or withdrawn them again (similar to a starport)
to prevent destruction because a player take the last ress from it, it doesn't require resources to stay online -- it uses an internal timer instead and after 60 min or so it self-destructs
but wait !
thats not all
a second type of storage platform (inf)
engies build them as usual
once done you must feed it with resource like any other plat
people can deposit / withdraw troops to / from this plat
but because those troops must eat, drink, require power for their playstation .... the res-drain is doubled
both types should have a max cargo ( 300.000 res / 30 troops )
now i hear you say: what for ?
the ressource-platform to build an outpost in deep space ( maybe with multiple engies) with a central dropoff-point
the inf-platform to have troops available at the front line for planet capping, ship capping intruder-defense in enemy territory
both platform should have barely any defenses ( the res-storage is just a big container in space)

I had the same idea but since Fautus has denied it already, I move to another idea.
How about supply aura platform instead of supply drone platform? Cause supply drone plat is standing by and it always and only heal the damaged one that approached it first. It's annoying for all factions.

Sure, let's make supply plats into mini SS. You'd either have them nonstackable which utterly defeats the purpose of building multiple supply plats, or stackable and you end up with invincible thugs and bugs.

Uh oh, players are discussing ideas about new ways to improve the game that they're playing! Quick, lock the thread!
/sarcasm off
Meanwhile... I don't even play K'luth and I would still vote in favor of a special cloak enhancing facility (or even platform) specifically for them. Logic > Side Bias.

Dont be stupid! All you need to do is a nice suggestion to improve Ugto faction.

I play UGTO, actually, so I'm sure I could up with plenty, but I wouldn't want to suggest anything unbalancing to the game as a whole. I'd have to match those suggestions with ICC and K'Luth suggestions, too, and I lack the experience with them to take on the task of analysing what they might need.
