What's this 'Hurogok'?

Anyway, nanites often cannot handle the tiny bits of rocks and stuff flying at massive speeds in space that are undetectable by pebble-killers (Non-weapon powerful-ish lasers that are intended to destroy any incoming flying bits of rock.), and they tend to get lost in the vacuum, so that's each individual unit is very cheap. You don't wanna buy them though. It's better to buy a production module instead for something starship-scaled.

Also, your choice of hull-plating is important. Some plating types are better than others. You can buy energy-absorption platings to lessen the damages done by lasers/beams or ballistic armor to reduce physical projectile impacts.
