Guided Magic Warhead

The **Guide Magic Warhead** is a weapon developed and used by the Ravernal Empire. It is also being used by several nations in the New World

## Background

The Guided Magic Warhead is made in the Holy Mirishial Empire but their version can be only mounted on ships. When the HME observer Lydolka Olifant from the Battle of Topa Kingdom (Demon Lord Extermination) saw the JGSDF using shoulder-mounted missiles, he is surprised that a country from Outside Civilization had such weapons where in the HME, they are still in the testing stage for their guided magic bullets and man-portable missiles are still far dream for his empire.

It was revealed that the anti-ship version of the Guided Magic Warheads do not have sea skimming capability. Instead, it has a simple and highly predictable parabolic flight path, making it inferior to Japan's guided missiles in terms of flight trajectory. Furthermore, the missiles are much bigger than the Harpoons, Type-90 SSM-1B Ship-to-Ship Missile, Type-12 Surface-to-Ship Missile or Type 93 ASM-2 Anti-ship Missile and possess no stealth capability, which makes them easily being detected by long range radar. This fact makes the missiles to be vulnerable to CIWS or interceptor missiles. They were equipped with a magical warhead that contains huge magical elements which are 10% lighting magic, 20% sky magic, 30% flame magic and 40% explosive magic which is capable of sinking a battleship with a single hit by generating a magical fusion reaction, making it far superior to the Japan's conventional guided missiles in terms of firepower.

The missiles are also highly expensive to make since its require a magic core to contain all magical elements to function and the magic cores must be made from a highly rare and expensive type of metal. This fact creates another huge disadvantage that they cannot mass produce these missiles like Japan.

## Chronology

According the the LN vol. 6, the HME managed to made 2 versions of the guided magic warhead, comparable to the Harpoon missiles and the Japanese Type-90 SSM. It is said that is can destroy a La Kasami-class battleship in one shot. However, the HME guided magic bullet is not capable of low altitude skimming to avoid radar.

During the Great Naval Invasion of Japan, HME had the opportunity to witness the combat capabilities of Japanese anti-ship missiles. The said missiles hit their targets at a distance of 100 km. Meteos is upset that Japan managed to develop guided missile technology by just using science and mechanical technology and long being used in all aspect of warfare (ground, maritime and aerial) while his empire still in the testing stage for their guided magic warheads and limited only to naval warfare.

The anti-ship missile was first tested during the Liberation of Leifor, where the new HME Orichalcum-Class Magic Battleship *Cosmo* launched three against a surface group of the Gra Valkas Imperial Navy. The missiles were highly effective, bypassing the anti-air fire and detonating with enough force to completely wipe three of the Orion-Class battleships and a cruiser.

Surprisingly, the Cryseilis Holy Kingdom is a user also of said weapon. They came from old stocks of Ravernal weaponry that was found on the kingdom. The said weapons are installed on the kingdom's Flying Battleship Pal Chimera *Divine Emperor Gausser*'s During the ongoing Conflict at Silkark Kingdom, the kingdom used the said weapons against the Kongō-Class AEGIS Guided Missile Destroyer (DDG) *Chokai,* the first time Japan was subjected to a guided-missile attack. However, the said guided-missiles has a predictable trajectory and subsonic speed and it was easily intercepted by the supersonic RIM-66 Standard Surface-to-Air Missiles.
