Well, this would be not the first time that I'm wrong about something!!!
But at least in the simulator, at the right side you could see the red line for the components, and the blue line if the fighter group has shields. If the fighter group only has armors, you only will see the red line.
Also, the shield depleters can hit the fighter's shields.

Indeed, shielded fighter group shows both "red" and "blue" bars. But "blue" is for decoration only. If you check the amount of points in "red" bar, it will be exactly fighter' structure+shields ! Thus, neither PPB or null-space give any benefits. 1.78 bug aside, neither is time-distortion bust. AFAIK, shield depletors are wasted against fighters. I'm still confused about crystalline energy lense. There are conflicting Posts that it is either does not work at all or it works and add points to all fighters in stack.
