Missile guide (page 7 of 8)
Sting
The Sting is the Khaak's small missile, which is primarily designed to do some extra damage to M4 and M3's. It's powerful enough to take out any slow moving M5.
Speed | 257 m/s | Lifetime | 155 secs |
Damage | 4,000 | Radius | 200m |
Price | 3.4k cr | Range | 39.8km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Yes/Prox |
Tempest
The Tempest looks like a normal missile, with damage/speed that matches its counterparts however it has one nice big bonus to it: it can lock onto new targets automatically. This can save money, if the targeted ship gets destroyed before the missile can reach its target.
Speed | 195 m/s | Lifetime | 320 secs |
Damage | 60,000 | Radius | 20m |
Price | 13.4k cr | Range | 62.4km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Automatic |
Thorn
The Thorn is supposed to be the Khaak's high damage missile however with only double the damage of the Needle (15k worth of damage) it lacks. The Thorn is basically the bigger version of the Needle, without too much of a speed loss. This missile is hardly anything to worry about in corvettes and destroyers.
Speed | 159 m/s | Lifetime | 112 secs |
Damage | 15,000 | Radius | 400m |
Price | 13.4k cr | Range | 17.8km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Yes/Prox |
Thunderbolt missile
The Thunderbolt is great missile with a fast top speed, high damage and normal tracking system. Its speed suggest its good for M3's however with the damage suggest more like M6.
Speed | 195 m/s | Lifetime | 400 secs |
Damage | 75,000 | Radius | 20m |
Price | 8.4k cr | Range | 78km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Yes/Heat |
Tomahawk missile
The Tomahawk missile is used on most M8 class ships. This missile does massive damage to M6 and higher classes, and is fairly hard to outrun (M6+). This missile can often lead to an instant kill. So it is wise to use missile defence against this missile especially M6 classes.
Speed | 196 m/s | Lifetime | 220 secs |
Damage | 625,000 | Radius | 150m |
Price | 22.4k cr | Range | 43km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Yes |
