Overview
A one-time boost for either your forwards or your aft shields. Useful for emergency get-aways whilst being scragged by the McNasties!
Note that these stack, so that you can have more than one boost installed (up to 8).
Also note that each additional boost requires equipment occupying 2TC of cargo space.
Usage
Kiche is fully automatic. As an emergency device it needs to be reliable without requiring manual action. There's still a chance of surprise though : KES devices can be damaged before being used.
Lore
White Fang is a book about Alaska & Yukon during the gold rush by Jack London (d.1916). White Fang is a wolf (1/4 dog, 3/4 wolf) and Kiche (half dog, half wolf) is his mother. In one of the best scenes in the book Kiche fights a lynx to protect her pups . Typically such fights end badly for the wolf, this one is different.
The idea of a mother defending her offspring against a stronger opponent matches well with Lone Wolf's view of these emergency shields.
