Oi, Obviously You are completely uninformed as to the nature of Megalodons Armor. I suggest you read Tato's explanation of it on his blog.

It is armor, but it functions more like an energy shield. The armor evenly dissipates the force over the entire structure, until it has had more than it can handle. Then the ship becomes a glass cannon until the armor can recharge. The fact that the ship was glowing cherry red, was evidence to the fact that the armor was very nearly breached, and the fact that several turrets were damaged, shows that it did fail, if only, momentarily.
