2nd stage missile design

[WHCnelson (OP)]

   I have a question on designing a two stage missile.
I have two sizes 4 missile design already  see below...

Code: [Select]

Warhead strength:  1.2  for a value of 7
Fuel Capacity:         0.9  for a value of 2250
Agility:                   0.4  for a value of 32
The engine I am using is 1.2 EP Magnetic-Plasma Drive and I am usig 5 of these

Code: [Select]

Warhead strength:  1.0  for a value of 6
Fuel Capacity:         1.1  for a value of 2750
Agility:                   0.2275  for a value of 18.2
The engine I am using is 1.02 EP Magnetic-Plasma Drive and I am usig 5 of these

Heijahen AS Missile

Warhead: 6    Armour: 0     Manoeuvre Rating: 15
Speed: 25500 km/s    Engine Endurance: 64 minutes   Range: 97.3m km
Thermal Sensor Strength: 0.0822    Detect Sig Strength 1000:  82,200 km
Cost Per Missile: 3.2707
Chance to Hit: 1k km/s 382.5%   3k km/s 120%   5k km/s 76.5%   10k km/s 38.2%
Materials Required:    1.5x Tritanium   0.0495x Boronide   0.0822x Uridium   1.639x Gallicite   Fuel x2750

Development Cost for Project: 327RP
My Size 6 missile 2 stage looks like this...

Code: [Select]

Warhead strength:  0.0  for a value of 0
Fuel Capacity:         0.55  for a value of 4125
Agility:                   0.45  for a value of 36
The engine I am using is 1.2 EP Magnetic-Plasma Drive and I am usig 2 of these


Second stage is the Heijahen AS missile:
Separation Range (k)  I put 95 which puts the overall range below...

[b]Kagitingan Missile[/b]
Missile Size: 6 MSP  (0.3 HS)     Warhead: 0    Armour: 0     Manoeuvre Rating: 16
Speed: 13300 km/s    Engine Endurance: 115 minutes   Range: 91.6m km
Cost Per Missile: 4.9907
Second Stage: Heijahen AS Missile x1
Second Stage Separation Range: 95,000 km
Overall Endurance: 3 hours   Overall Range: 190.8m km
Chance to Hit: 1k km/s 212.8%   3k km/s 64%   5k km/s 42.6%   10k km/s 21.3%
Materials Required:    1.5x Tritanium   0.0495x Boronide   0.0822x Uridium   3.359x Gallicite   Fuel x4125

Development Cost for Project: 499RP

Please does this work...  or any of you have a segestion?

My Active sensors ranges are
MR94 Resolution 65  // MR94 Resolution 4 // MR105 Resolution 20 // MR56 Resolution 65 //
MR189 Resolution 65   

Thanks

It'll work....but that separation range is WAY too short; the separation range is the distance from target that the second stage(which is typically the stage that has the actual warhead) will separate from the booster and maneuver independently. What I'm assuming you're trying to do here is strap on a booster to a regular size 4 missile so you can double its range; with that in mind, make the separation range as close to the max range of the booster as you can(leave a couple mil range cushion though to allow the second stage to be able to reach retreating targets)

   Thanks...

ok...  now how do I insert a picture of my missiles list from my game?
I've tried the buttons above and just copy and past as well...

You need to upload the pic someplace like imgur or photobucket. Then you can use the [img] tags. The url goes between them. Otherwise you can click the + button next to additional options below and attach a file. Shows up as a paperclipped file below the post.
