TDY R&D 6
Designer: TDY IndustrialName: Arakis X-17
Type: Anti-capital ship missile
Length: 3 Meters
Speed: 220 MGLT
Turn Speed: 10% per second
Distance: System wide travel(based off of VC's "Opticon" and Kas's opinion)
Payload: 600 pounds
Warhead: Loaded with depleted uranium and some explosives of other sorts. Allowing for a mixture of materials to provide a good blast for a missile its size. Causes same amount of damage to an ISD's shields as five proton torpedoes.
Guidance: Personnel
Special Feature: Remote Self-destruct
Maneuverability: High
Build Time: 1 day
Description:
Designed for the purpose of planetary assault on capital ships, it is very effective. It is more powerful than planetary lasers and delivers a larger payload. It is launched from the Charlis Platforms stationed on all of the TDY planets. It is considered very fast, and well suited to its task.
Hopefully, it will do its damage. These usually are not launched until the target ships shields are down.

This design will no longer be used by the Republic and has effectively been erased from all of our archives.

APPROVED

Does the size really matter if the build time remains 1 day? Though I agree, to an extent... how big is a Cruise Missile?

Ok. I edited some stuff with Kas's help. According to him, the distance and speed changes I made are legal. The missile can do what it is said to do.

No, it seems fair.
And Kamon, i never have ignored you when i've been on AIM...
So i don't know where that came from...

Its big enough to fit a person inside of it now. Besides the point, unless your going to make some more relevant arguments my former post stands. That is unless another mod has an objection to my demands....

Gue that's utterly and completely stupid.
Concussion missiles alone travel at (if I am not mistaken) 240 MGLT. Missiles are meant to be fast, [i]very[/i] fast compared to fighters. Lasers are indeed faster, but as a whole, missiles are the fastest "non energy" projectiles.
You're talking about making it about on par with TIE Defenders, maybe a tad bit faster, and making it big enough to fit about a person inside.
WTF?

Lower speed by 30 MGLT and increase size by 1m

Bump. Needs approved.
#23 5:06am 15/05/03
Done again. Why wont you answer me on AIM?

I think it should actually be lower substantially more. This missile is designed to be a heavy strike missile.
Its likely to be a massive bulky peice of @#%$ packing the power of 5 torps into a single projectile. Hence it should definetely [i]not[/i] be even close to the speed of a proton, let alone fuckloads more.
#21 1:30am 15/05/03
Done.
#20 6:55am 12/05/03
Lower missile speed.
#19 11:06pm 11/05/03
Agreed Kas, thus; I suggest we follow the same path we have as pretains to speed ratings.
No need to change and complicate things.
