Unless the "plasma shield" is several miles thick and at something at least approaching atmospheric pressure, there won't even be enough exposure time for the slug to even get warm before it strikes the ship. | |

Density is many magnitudes too low, incoming energies way too high. It might work against charged particle beams, and possibly might fry electronics of incoming smart missiles. | |
