=== Shields ===
All DDF and Superiority starships utilize energy shields to protect their hulls and their occupants from harm. They are controlled by a component known as a shield igniter. Shields function directionally, blocking incoming fire while allowing outgoing weapons through.{{wob ref|11785}}
 
Shields can be disabled by an IMP blast, leaving ships vulnerable to enemy fire.{{book ref|sky1|14}}{{book ref|sky1|23}} DDF fighters must divert all power from their boosters—effectively either immobilizing the crafts or locking their trajectories—for around thirty seconds in order to reignite their shields.{{book ref|sky1|23}}
 
== Weaponry Systems ==
They are equipped with dual 138 Stewart Destructors.{{book ref|sky1|41}}
