Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 Gap Generator hides structures and units in its radius, but requires power to remain active.

The Gap Generator in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 functions similarly to a Stealth Generator (a structure that cloaks nearby units and buildings), but it conceals any structure and unit within its radius in a large shroud (an area of visual obscurity). Units and structures that target enemy units will decloak (become visible) so they can attack. You must keep your power level above nominal, or everything will shut down. It can be useful in the earlier stages for remaining hidden from your enemies, but it is not recommended for use when your enemy has already scouted out your base, as a super weapon strike will still be imminent.

Tips
  • Maintain sufficient power generation to keep the Gap Generator active.
  • Use the Gap Generator early in the game to conceal your base before it is fully scouted.
  • Be aware that the Gap Generator does not protect against super weapon strikes if your base has already been revealed.
  • Units and structures will decloak when they engage in combat.
