Mirrored Surface Composite

Template:Quote

Mirrored Surface Composite is a specialized reinforcement material for the ship's hull. It is designed to give the best protection against energy weapons, such as pulse, burst, and beam lasers at the cost of vulnerability to kinetic damage.

Mk II Ablative Mirrored Surface Composite

Template:Quote Mk II Ablative Mirrored Surface Composite is an improved Mirrored Surface Composite bulkhead armour that provides advanced thermal shielding for faster, steeper atmospheric entries. It was apparently developed by Zorgon Peterson along with the Caspian Explorer, the only ship on which it can be fitted,[1] and introduced on 02 December 3311 (2025).[2] Its published specs are identical to the regular Mirrored Surface Composite, aside from the atmospheric entry benefits and purchase cost.

Specifications

As with all armour the price and weight of Mirrored Surface Composite scales with the size of the ship. <table-progress-tracking table-id="1" unique-column-index="1">
