Defensive Countermeasures

Source Starfinder Core Rulebook pg. 298
Defensive countermeasures systems protect a ship from tracking weapons such as missiles, and they make it difficult for enemies using sensors to get a solid reading on the ship. They do this via a complicated suite of electronic sensors and broadcasting equipment that’s designed to jam enemy sensors and create false readings. These systems grant a bonus to a ship’s TL (see page 320); the bonus, PCU usage, and cost are listed in the table below.

Name	Bonus to TL	PCU	Cost (in BP)
Mk 1 Defenses	+1	1	2
Mk 2 Defenses	+2	1	3
Mk 3 Defenses	+3	2	4
Mk 4 Defenses	+4	3	6
Mk 5 Defenses	+5	4	8
Mk 6 Defenses	+6	5	11
Mk 7 Defenses	+7	7	14
Mk 8 Defenses	+8	9	18
