Astrobee Swarmkillers (ware)

The Astrobee Swarmkiller is a type of missile that is exclusively deployed in large swarms (also, quite euphemistically, known as 'shoals'). Each Astrobee Swarmkiller is equipped with a tool-level AGI that stays in constant contact with its neighbouring units, thereby automatically forming a hive-mind similar to that of a flock of birds, or a shoal of fish. Approaching an assigned target - or targets - a shoal of Astrobee Swarmkillers generally splits up into several smaller divisions, seeking out individual targets. Effective against fighter formations or drone swarms, the Astrobee Swarmkiller is regarded advanced technology, and therefore, costly.
