« on: February 20, 2016, 11:25:13 PM »thanks! One reason i have not used them heavily yet (except for the S-9 version) is that I am still tinkering with range, speed, and
seperation. I am thinking of just using FireAnts (which is a new design) in greater quantity rather than the older Firestorm missile
sub-munition. Also changing the seperation range to 2m km as to overwhelm last minute defences. Also the carrier is armored to
withstand 1-2 hits by size 1 weapons. My standard S-9 Nike missile (single warhead) has a single armored addition and works well
in 4 ship salvos to overwhelm OWP defences and the FireAnt should do even better as a suppresion weapon.
Edit:
Thats strange. I had thought I had changed the seperation range based on notes i made but when i try to change it on the design
screen it always resets to 150,000 miles nommater what mirv design i use after its researched...
