Yeah, this was a huge problem in the Star Wolves series, and I imagine, one of the huge reasons (if not THE reason) why the developers added anti-laser systems in the first place.

Also, do not underestimate the 80% reduction, towards the end practically every enemy fighter is equipped with one, making even ships equipped with precursor cannons struggle.

Each enemy fighter will only ever equip one antilaser system, so laser is still fine against them. I think the enemies only have the 50% reduction, as that's the only one that gets dropped. But maybe they could be equipped with 80% reduction but only drop the 50% one?

While laser is king against enemies, you can just equip your own fighters with two or three antilaser systems for seriously laser equipped enemies like the Berserks. A fighter with at least 3 system slots equipped with 2 80% antilaser and 1 missile jammer is totally invincible in the level where Berserks are the only enemy.

in the final mission, my mothership salvaged some 80% laser-proof, so, there are better equiped fighters.
how about mother ships, are there any laser-proof motherships in the npc fleet?

SAM might be, other than him, though, no.

About 80% Laser reduction, it highly depends on your difficulty. Easy (and even normal) difficulty you will not see many at all, but hard difficulty you actually fight a lot of enemies equipped with 80% laser reduction.
