Shard has added radar in Pre-August 2016 balance mod EDI release http://forums.faforever.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=15986&p=161629#p161629 The effect it has is for single AA boats to be able to shoot planes earlier improving its effective DPS in some situations.
Main problem of Shard is cost and torp bomber.
Another way to buff the shard vs torpedo bombers alone is not by increasing its 750 HP but by decreasing them and reducing the cost using the overkill dynamic which makes torpedo bombers cost less effective.
One drawback of hover flak though is its speed when compared to shard.
While testing always make sure to download the latest version in the vault.

Pre-August 2016 balance mod EDI will address players concerns when they are valid and try to reflect appropriate changes. Pre-August 2016 balance mod EDI moves fast when something can be fixed easily and doesnt waste time with introducing new gimmick things that serve no purpose of improving the game.
