You've uploaded a savemet, not the actual save.

Does this still happen in the new version?

This is still happening. The target is the "retribution" guardian, could be a weird interaction with that particular ships as the Tower is able to get out shots on other things

Here's the actual save this time

Do the lightning towers hit other things?

They were able to attack other ships in that save, but seemed to specifically avoid attacking the retribution guardian

I'm happy to report that this is not a bug, but a design feature of that unit for some reason. Feel free to take off the limited-targets tag, and that would let it attack anything. Cheers!

Sure thing! Probably just a copy-paste thing from another unit.
