Err... actually, in the FB2 description of Heavy Fighters it just states
(for attacks by beam-type PDS) ".. rolls of "4" have no effect", with no
actual mention of screens.
I'd personally take the list consensious (IIRC) that B-1 kill heavy
fighters as if they were normal fighters as guidance here, and assume
K-1s work the same vs. both heavy and normal fighters.
