It's very simple, really:

If you're shooting at one single target (ie, not at a fighter squadron
or missile salvo), the re-rolls ignore all passive defences (armour and
screens at the moment).

If a single die shoots at *multiple* targets (ie, shoots at a figther
squadron or missile salvo), the re-rolls do not ignore passive
defences.

Weapon die roll modifiers that are due to the weapon (+1 for Attack/
Interceptor fighters) are always applied to the re-roll as well as the
original roll.
