Missile Defence bugged?

[Sing_In_Silence]

First question:
Does anyone else have this when you put them in missile defense?
(Answer should be yes. It just means that the string is (for some or other reason) missing or inaccessible.)

Any mission that isn't 'Leader', 'Attack' or 'Defend' means that they don't shoot, so that's working as intended.
Second question, possibly a 'duh':
Does his ship have any active missile defense modules?
(I forget the first two, but 3 and 4 are Berserk and Cerebus)
a.k.a. Are any hit by a white beam from his ship?

If he doesn't, that'd explain why the same missiles are getting through.

Beyond that, I'm prety much stumped.
