The Mk I Deflector is a low-generation energy-based magnetic repulsion grid. It is a self-contained 100-ton unit that generates a force field that reduces the damage potential of weapons that rely upon projectile impact to inflict damage. Deflectors cannot be "knocked down" and will remain in operation as long as it is receiving power, though ship damage will, of course, reduce effectiveness. To increase deflection power, install more Deflectors.
