This must have been asked before, but I can't see it ...
Can anybody tell me what Shielding does for Fuel Scoops?

Shields? Plural? Seems a little confusing as it suggests that the ship's shields are also improved. No change in ship shield strength when adding/removing an engineered Fuel Scoop. Also suggests that integrity is all about shielding versus armour. Anyway it uses easy to find mats and when you have hundreds why not.
With my class 6 grade 4 scoop integrity goes up 240 percent while power goes 80 percent. That is 1.49MW whch is easily taken care of.
Still...You're 300LY from the nearest station and some ship takes out your Fuel Scoop. With a full tank you can only jump 200LY without one. Hope you have the Fuel Rats on speed dial. For an Explorer also having a shielded AFMU seems appropriate.

Most PvP'ers i know always target the Fuel Scoop first, so get the best Integrity you can
Was that one of the feared Fuel Rats hit squads?I was ganked the other day and they sniped my fuel scoop for some reason. Imagine my surprise that I forgot to remove the fuel scoop from my combat build before leaving the station. That'll learn me. Doh. Fuel scoops.
