- "It is protected by an energy shield which is generated from the nearby Forest Moon of Endor. The shield must be deactivated if any attack is to be attempted."
- ―Admiral Gial Ackbar, regarding the assault on the second Death Star
A deflector shield generator, or simply a shield generator, was any device used to create a deflector shield, including both particle and ray shielding.
Description
Deflector shield generators were produced in a variety of sizes, ranging from small personal projectors to large units used on capital ships. In some cases, the generator could project the shield a great distance and without need for line of sight, by using a focusing dish. Variants included planetary shield generators, such as the SLD-26 planetary shield generator used to protect the second Death Star in orbit over the moon of Endor, and the DSS-02 shield generator used to protect Echo Base during the Battle of Hoth. The Imperial Army used a force shield projector to protect their base on Borleias around 7 ABY.
