Anytime a PDS **scores a hit**, regardless if it's an upgraded or regular PDS, the **active player decides** which ships should be destroyed. The active player being the person moving their ships. This **could be a fighter** unit if they have them. All ship units are "units" in terms of space combat, cannon or ship to ship.

The rules for this game is pretty comprehensive. For more information regarding PDS please read over the [Twilight Imperium 4 Wikipedia - Space Cannons](https://twilight-imperium-4.fandom.com/wiki/Space_Cannon).
