Tech: Transphasic Torpedo

Transphasic Torpedo
Prerequisites: Torpedo Weaponry Theory, Sub-Space Compression Pulse, Subspace Weaponry Theory, Photon Torpedo
Research Cost: Pending
Description
The Transphasic Torpedo uses a subspace-based warhead.
The warhead generates a destructive subspace compression pulse. Upon detonation the torpedo delivers the pulse in an asymmetric superposition of multiple phase states. Shields can only block one subcomponent of the pulse. The other subcomponents deliver the majority of the pulse to the target. Every torpedo has a different transphasic configuration, generated randomly by a dissonant feedback effect, making it almost impossible to adapt or from predicting the configuration of the phase states. 
The Subspace energy released in by the Transphasic Torpedo is extremely powerful and capable of destroying very large vessels with a single torpedo. 
They are considered a Sub-space Weapon.
