Missile guide (page 5 of 8)

Hurricane missile

The Hurricane is primarily designed on taking on M5 and M4 ships, due to its fast speed and good amount of damage. The missile also has a slight radius damage, meaning the missile does not need to hit square on. The only downside is that this missile uses the same cargo space as the larger Hornet missile, which could be a problem on smaller ships.
