heh, Ion cannons were suppossed to ignore shields and scramble systems they were a capture weapon. In Tie Fighter you had to use them to capture B-Wings, but you did have to batter down their shields before using them.
However in Empire strikes back two shots would scramble a star destroyer. In Wing Commander they made an appearance as leech guns, and they were very effective.
