Inertia Suppression Field

s are special personal shields used by Aliens in Mothership Zeta

The Aliens have developed advanced personal shield technology. Aliens equipped with these shields glow, and appear to be holographic. It protects them during combat and makes them very difficult to kill.

The shields are most sensitive against energy weapons. It seems as if an attempt was made to make players more gravitated towards weapons like the Alien Disintegrator and Alien Atomizer because they seem to have a property which ignores these shields more than other weapons.

Note
An example to the difficulty to kill them: a direct hit with a Tesla Cannon only takes about 1/3 of their total health.
