I don't think it affects the game, but SG:K is:
<SG:K points="60">
Shield Generators are based on alien field technology. They enhance
armor. The SG:K protects against kinetic (mass driver) weapons.
<required0 research="Cor:S" />
<required1 research="Viper" />
</SG:K>
Cor:S is not a research, it's an item.
I did play through the latest one, and got SG:K's so I don't think it's
influencing the gameplay at all, and I don't think one would reach SG:K without
having shot down a Scout, or even researching Alien Cores.
