Shield Projector

Essential to modern space ships are Shields. Not only for combat but to protect the ship from environmental influences. Union Shield Technology is the envy of all known Non Union societies and widley considered to be  Techlevel10+. Union Shield Projectors are easily replaced and standardized. Civilian Ships generally use Shimmer Fields while Military Units rely on Para and Trans Dim Shields. The latest shield technology combines Shimmer, Chrono and TransDim Shield technology in the so called SCT – Shields (USS Tigershark first test platform)

Shown is a typical Field Projector. (At least one per ship side)

Generally there are :
 * 1.Forward
 * 2.Aft
 * 3.Mast
 * 4.Keel
 * 5.Starboard
 * 6.Port

Shield Generators. Union Fleet Ships have at least tripple shielding (meaning there are three Generators close together ( Generator Cluster) projecting 3 layers of shield.

Tripple Shielding is a distinct Terran technology but copied by many species.

Ships can have multiple Generator/Projector Clusters for each side.
