Starbase Ship Card Question

Hallo, out there!

I am new to this forum. Right now I am trying play a starbase assault with a couple of friends and we stumbled over a little aspect on the starbase's ship card we do not really understand.

We know that "P4" and "W1-W4" on the weapons used track stand for the different weapon loadouts of the racial starbases, but we could not determine the meaning of the "S" down at the end of the track.

In Squad Scale it is said, that the starbase has 8 of these systems and 4 in Fleet Scale, yet we could not find any trace of it, neither on the ship card nor in the rules.

So, is it just a remnant of a dropped idea or does the "S" has a meaning we just have overlooked?

Mit freundliche Grüßen from Germany

It is a "remnant of a dropped idea". Specifically, they are for the Special Sensors that were not included. The boxes were removed from the ship itself, but we forgot to take them off the weapons used track.
