Defense modules are split into 3 types: Shield, Armor, and System. Some modules have alternative versions that are either purchasable in Black Market, or unlocked after beating a sector.
Armor[]
Armor, a defense module, friendly weapons behind armor can shoot over it. Armor modules tend to have much higher health than all the other modules. Armor modules also have two main parameters – reflect and armor.
Reflect is a percent of laser damage that is blocked, meaning, an armor block with 60% reflect would take only 40% of the lasers original damage.
Armor is a flat rate damage reduction against ballistics and missiles. It does not affect lasers. The reason some low damage ballistics are able to destroy high armor armors is the ramp up mechanic.
The most effective weapon type against armor are missiles due to some factors. Missiles have a high individual damage that is not impacted by armor’s armor or reflect parameters. Missiles have a blast radius that allows one missile to do damage to multiple armor cells and possibly hit modules hidden behind armor (if a missile has 30 damage and hits all 9 cells of a 3x3 armor module, the missile does 270 damage).

Shield[]
Shield, creates a bubble of protective layer around itself, blocking projectiles. The shield lasts a fixed amount of damage before disappearing. Shields (except Bunker Shields) regenerate their shields over time but the regenerated amount is also limited. Laser weapons completely bypass shields. All shield modules are 0 armor, 0% reflect.
If you hit two (or more) shields at the same time, only one of the shields will receive damage. In this situation, the first shield that satisfies the conditions in the game code will be damaged. Shields created by the shield modules have varying hidden armor stats that cannot be upgraded.
