Oh man, I always spell it "defence".Maybe it depends on your country? Like here in Australia we spell "color" like "colour".
I don't know!
I suppose it probably doesn't really matter...

It all depends upon your country. The UK, Canada, and Australia use "defence" however Americans use the more antiquated "defense." Both are correct, much like offense and offence, neighbor and neighbour, etc....
oh, okay. so it's basically the same situation as colour and color.
and flavor and flavour and favor and favour
