    I remember the Romulans lending the Feds a cloaking device on the condition that they share intel on the other side of the worm hole and that Starfleet not use it in the Alpha quadrant.

    Presumably the cloak could have been fitted on to any Starfleet ship of a certain size/class though, from an in-universe perspective.

      Cloaking devices do seem to be very plug-and-play across starship types.

      Scotty gets a Romulan cloak to work on the Enterprise. The Enterprise-D crew quickly adapt a phasing cloak designed for a different class of starship. The Titan-A uses the Klingon cloak from the Bounty.
