Can anyone open these?

I want to change the ship icons so you don't get friend/enemy status from them (ie. change from red and blue to black).
I am pretty sure I have found where the icons are.
Here they are

Haven't managed to get any of them open to take a look.
Can anyone else open one of these up?
And if so, using what application.

looking at it with hex editor shows a bunch of floats in it. Doesn't look like any particular file type but more like a data file.

open the *.shp with notepad, they are plain text-files
