Hammerhead Missile

The Hammerhead is the standard multi-purpose attack weapon for Pathfinder ships. It is an autonomously targeted missile powered by ion-thrusters that can carry a conventional hyper explosive, nucleonic, antimatter warhead with a typical yield of 200 Booms . A Hammerhead missile is 2.2 meters long and has a distinctive bulbous warhead, which looks kind of like a hammer... sort of. Aves and Aquilae can carry Hammerheads in their forward missile bays or attached to hardpoints under the wingblades. Defensive Hammerhead missile launchers are arrayed at various points on larger ships as a complement to the phalanx guns and ion pulse cannons.
