Unit Shields: Right now (v1.67) units do not have shields, even though they may have a blue shield indicator. The shield points are added to the total damage resistance kt of the unit. I did test and confirm this to see if the Crystaline shield boosting facility would help fighters. Well the facility didn't help the fighters at all but did add 60 to the useless blue shield bar, not 60 per fighter but 60 per fighter group.

You need to re-run your test. Take 5 fighters, and put no shielding on them. Fire at them with a massive mount anti-proton beam. All 5 fighters will be destroyed. Then, take 5 fighters and put any amount of shielding on them. Fire the same anti-proton beam. Only one fighter will be destroyed no matter how much damage you do.
