Were my ships attacking each other?

I was playing the other day in a large map with a bunch of AI opponents.  I am TEC.  I was in the midst of a battle that was massive and my screen was clogged with ships.  I'll admit, my PC is only a 2.4 so it chugs pretty good when that happens.

Anyway, I could have sworn that a bunch of my own ships were attacking one of my capital ships.  The only kinds of ships I had in my fleet were:  heavy crusiers, light frigates, and capital ships.  I know what the shield-restore ability looks like when that fires off so I know it wasn't that.  It actually looked like multiple lasers all directed at my capital ship.

The enemy I was fighting was Vasari and there were a number of their capital ships present.  Do one of their ships have the ability to turn my forces onto themselves?  Was it a bug?  (I'm still playing w/ ver 1.03).  Or was I just misinterpreting what I saw?

FYI, I got my a__ handed to me in that battle, but when I reloaded and fought the same battle again, I routed them, which had me thinking maybe it was a bug...

Thanks!
