Missiles

Missiles are guided projectiles that carry an explosive payload. They can be launched from the Missile Rack, a C2 weapon.

Missiles are fast-moving and highly maneuverable. Their damage is also respectable; newer pilots may find them especially hard to deal with, as they are quick to destroy a naked Sidewinder. An alert will sound when a missile has been fired while locked to the player, and the missile can be seen on the radar, but out-maneuvering them can be very tricky. Boosting with flight assist off to maintain max speed in a Sidewinder will not outrun a missile. Currently, the only hard defense against missiles is a Point Defence Turret, which will shoot them down as they approach.

Missiles can be purchased like any ammunition and cost 10,000 for a pack of twelve, making them roughly 834 credits each.
