Where can I come across data on the new platform types in 1.701.
Have tried the 'jack-online' statistics site but there seems to be no data for the new plats.
1 What is number of gadgets on each platform?
2 What is the range of the recon plat's ecm?
2a Does it have a scanner? if so what range - 5000gu or has this changed?
3 Does the sensor plat contain eccm as well as a scanner?
4 What is the range of the torpedo platform?
5 What is the range of the gun platform?
6 What is the range of the Defense platform (and what exactly does it do)?
7 What is the range of beams on the platforms?
8 Have PD beams been removed from supply platforms?
9 Are the statistics for the platforms the same across all factions?
Tooltips for all this data would be most helpful as well as a wiki and or manual update. Hooray for tooltips!
Thanks in advance.

1 - you can easily check that on your own. select a platform of your faction (capture an enemy platform if needed) and press the '.' key to cycle through the platform's devices and cargo (which will usually have nothing).
2 - 25 gu, same as the faction's local ECM.
2a - all recon platforms have scanners (3 i think). scanner range is equivalent to infinite, as in much bigger than the maximum targeting range of 5000 gu that players have. it makes things with positive signature more detectable.
3 - i believe it has ECCM only.
4,5,6,7 - all weapons and devices have same range as their ship-level counterparts, and hence can be determined from tooltips for ship weapons. defense platform has the role of heavy point defenses. two of them can screen a station against missiles, fighters and maybe mines at close range.
8 - yes, supply platforms are defenseless. cool huh?
9 - only the number of gadgets of each type. the weapons and armor the same as the faction's, and hence are different between factions.
wiki... i wish

Thanks Forger, I really appreciate your diligence in answering my questions.
One more thing,
Do the recon platform's ecm and sensor platform's eccm of one faction cancel each other out if the plats are built too close to each other or are faction ecm and eccm 'emitted' upon different 'frequencies'?

Also, does each supply platform within 250gu of a friendly ship get a boost to repair speed?
eg do two platforms repair twice as fast, four platforms four times as fast eight platforms eight times as fast and so on or is there a limit as to how many platforms can repair one ship at one time?

They don't cancel each other out. ECCM only affects enemies and ECM only affects allies.

i dont know about boosting of any repair rates.
but if you mean stacking, i believe there is a certain maximum repair rate for each ship class, and beyond that further repair drones cannot be used.
stacking of repair drones happens just as how 2 ships do twice the damage of 1 ship, and 4 ships do 4x damage, and 8 do 8x and so on...
except, there is no limit on how much damage you can do per second.
