Reflective shield

Reflective shields were a type of starship shield developed in the middle of the fifth decade after the Battle of Yavin, shortly before the Corellian Uprising of 46 ABY. The highly expensive shielding system not only blocked all incoming projectiles and energy bolts, but reflected them back at their source with enough accuracy to destroy a TIE fighter in standard stratospheres at a range of 4 kilometers.

Reflective shield generators were specialized devices made from proprietary parts, and thus were difficult and costly to maintain. Even the Hapes Consortium was unable to afford this technology for standard or elite-force use; it was rumored to have been installed on the Queen Mother's traveling ship for extra protection, but this was never confirmed.
