nice experiment spoon, but how strong were those ships armoured? as NSP is only good against heavy shielded/armored ships.

I used a fairly common design:
1 bridge, 2 life support, 2 crew quarters
5 jacketed photon engines III
1 solar sail III
1 ECM III
1 Combat Sensors III
1 Multiplex Tracking V
1-2 Point Defense V (some ships had 20kt extra, so I filled it with PD)
1 Stealth Armor III
1 Scattering Armor III
3 Phased Shield Gen III
400 - 420 kt Weapon, Heavy Mount

So the total resistance that the NSPs skipped was: 1415 (1125 shields, 290 armor).
