Missile guide (page 6 of 8)

Rapier

This is one of the fastest moving missiles, capable of out running all ships. This is a great missile against M5 ships due its top speed. A couple of these should make quick work of most M5's.

Remote Guided Warhead

Despite its name, the Remote Guided Warhead is not actually controlled by a person. Its actual meaning behind the name, is that the missile automatically finds targets without a lock. However the missile is very slow (142m/s) and its not counted by a high damage warhead. This missile has limited usage but maybe useful for Kha'ak cluster busting (nice rhyming eh?). You can not buy this missile however but must salvage it from destroyed NPC ships.

Speed	142 m/s	Lifetime	560 secs
Damage	100,000	Radius	100m
Price	26.9k cr	Range	79.5km
Warhead	Single	Tracking	Automatic

Shadow missile

I think someone at Ego clicked the wrong button with this missile, has it does 755MJ of damage (which is a lot) however (this is where I think they clicked the wrong button) - its a swarm missile! So it breaks into 8 smaller missiles each doing 755MJ worth of damage, so that's 6GJ worth of damage. Seeing this is supposed to be the The Terran equivalent of the Hammer Heavy Torpedo (300MJ damage), I think it should'nt be a swarm missile.

Speed	245 m/s	Lifetime	330 secs
Damage	755,000 x8	Radius	4m
Price	53.4k cr	Range	73.5km
Warhead	Swarm (x8)	Tracking	Yes/Prox

Silkworm missile

This missile is a slow moving missile that deals a good amount of damage once its reached it's target. This missile usually needs to hit first time, as it will be shot out with missile defence due its lack of speed.

Speed	190 m/s	Lifetime	150 secs
Damage	19,000	Radius	20m
Price	5k cr	Range	28.8km
Warhead	Single	Tracking	Yes

Spectre missile

This is the Terran's version of the Paranid's Hornet missile, with a few twists. Firstly the Spectre has a higher damage output and a slight speed increase. When the missile first came into production, there was a bug in the rocket motor which made it burn out too quickly. Terran engineers have now fixed the problem, meaning the Spectre's offers similar range of the Hornet.

Speed	190 m/s	Lifetime	130 secs
Damage	260,000	Radius	20m
Price	7.9k cr	Range	24.7km
Warhead	Single	Tracking	Heat/Prox
