The Defence Fighter has a permanent shield around it that filters
out 80% of enemy fire (except Ion Beams, missiles or mines) but has
no guns of its own. It is otherwise very similar to the Interceptor,
matching it in manouverability but exceeding it in fuel and armor.
This makes it an ideal companion to the Interceptor and a wing made
up of 2 Interceptors to every Defence Fighter (evenly dispersed)
lasts a great deal longer than Interceptors on their own.
Special: Defence Field
Filters 80% of enemy fire (excluding Ion Beams, missiles or mines).

The Defence Frigate has a permanent shield around it that filters
out 93% of enemy fire (except Ion Beams, missiles or mines) but has
no guns of its own. It can accompany your Capital Ships (it is too
slow to help Strike Craft) when going into combat against Strike
Craft or Assault Frigates. But its inability to deflect missiles
and Ion Beams means that it isn't very effective when up against
much else.
Special: Defence Field
Filters 93% of enemy fire (excluding Ion Beams, missiles or mines).
