 Armor: The key substances that make up the hull armor of the ship are Zesuaium and Xiulurium. Zesuaium is a substance which does not conduct any form of electromagnetic radiation, including heat and electricity. It neither bends nor breaks, but will remain in a solid piece. The fabrication of Zesuaium takes place on aboard KFY factory starships, where one substance is molded in the shape desired, and then is transmuted into the eternally-fixed Zesuaium form. Xiulurium is used mainly for its stealth properties, which have a strong dampening effect on scalar and quintessential wave sensors. Armor: The key substances that make up the hull armor of the ship are Zesuaium and Xiulurium.

 In addition to their Zesuaium-reinforced hull plating, Ketsueki Attack Corvettes have the ability to deploy 20cm of heavy armor over the entire hull of the ship, including areas normally exposed such as the CDD, thrusters, and sensors. When the armor takes damage, it flakes away in a controlled manner (ablation), absorbing the destructive force. The armor can then be repaired using hemosynthesis, making the armor self-regenerative. A combined Photonic/Gravitonic field further protects the armor.  In addition to their Zesuaium-reinforced hull plating, Ketsueki Attack Corvettes have the ability to deploy 20cm of heavy armor over the entire hull of the ship, including areas normally exposed such as the CDD, thrusters, and sensors.

-**Shield Systems:** The Ketsueki has an excellent combined defense shielding system, relying on an teardrop-shaped combined spatial and electrogravitational distortion field network to warp space around it and alter the course of lasers, missiles, etc. that are headed for the ship using both dimensional warping and scalar EM interferometry.+Shield Systems: The Ketsueki has an excellent combined defense shielding system, relying on an teardrop-shaped combined spatial and electrogravitational distortion field network to warp space around it and alter the course of lasers, missiles, etc. that are headed for the ship using both dimensional warping and scalar EM interferometry.
  
 The first and primary shield system is the elliptical dimensional distortion. This system folds space using electrogravitational fields, wrapping it around the ship, to render the craft in its own bubble. Objects inside the bubble are protected from both conventional and scalar weaponry, because the projectiles or beams pass through the curved space and around the ship. The EDD can protect against up to 0.95 YottaWatts worth of damage (950,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules a second) per five-foot area in either kinetic or energy form. The first and primary shield system is the elliptical dimensional distortion.

 A third system, the GDF (ground defense field) protects the ship in the atmosphere, using the KiFRS-d2406ag Distributed Hull Inertial Redirection System's field to shield the craft from projectile weapons and rain and the like.  Everything that comes in contact with the GDF is forced along the shield downward, until it is on the ground. The GDF performs poorly, but notably, against energy attacks.  A third system, the GDF (ground defense field) protects the ship in the atmosphere, using the KiFRS-d2406ag Distributed Hull Inertial Redirection System's field to shield the craft from projectile weapons and rain and the like.  Everything that comes in contact with the GDF is forced along the shield downward, until it is on the ground.

-**Temporal-Spatial Distortion System:** Using its shield systems, the ship generates its own time-space distortion field. This field serves many purposes, mainly keeping the ship safe from spatiogravitational and temporal attacks.  It operates as a time/space anchor.  The DR device (dimensional retriever) is also built into this system.+Temporal-Spatial Distortion System: Using its shield systems, the ship generates its own time-space distortion field.
