SPECIAL FEATURES​

• Targeting Mode(s):
  
  • Ship-to-ship: Ship-to-ship targeting mode covers engaging of targets in space by a launch platform in space.
  • Air-to-ground: Air-to-ground targeting mode covers engaging of targets on the ground by airborne launch platforms.
• Guidance Mode(s):
  
  • Active Homing:
    
    • Pre-launch: The missile downloads sensor data, targeting and tracking information of the target as well as the IFF codes of all friendly assets in the area from the launch platform before launching.
    • Launch: The missile acquires a sensor lock on target and begins accelerating toward the target.
    • Midcourse: Using active sensor and scanner data from its own sensors, the missile determines whether to pursue the target and detonate on impact or in proximity of the target or to attempt to intercept the target's path of motion. At this stage, the missile can switch to Home on Jam mode if the amount of interference is too high such that it loses its original target. If there is no interference yet the missile has lost track of its target, the missile will revert to Inertial Guidance. The presence of hostile point-defense is also checked for, determining what if any terminal phase maneuvering the missile carries out. At any point during the midcourse phase, the missile defaults to inertial delayed active guidance mode.
    • Terminal: The missile expends the remainder of its fuel in a sustained high energy acceleration toward the target, detonating either on impact or in proximity depending on what approach and if any terminal maneuvering was selected by the missile during the midcourse phase.
  • Control Guidance:
    
    • Pre-launch: The missile downloads sensor data, targeting and tracking information of the target as well as the IFF codes of all friendly assets in the area from the launch platform before launching.
    • Midcourse: The missile receives updated targeting and tracking information from the launching platform via an encrypted frequency hopping comms link. The missile determines whether to pursue the target and detonate on impact or in proximity of the target or to attempt to intercept the target's path of motion. Detonation mode and exact flight path can still be programmed by the launching platform, however. The presence of hostile point-defense is also checked for by the missile's sensors, determining what if any terminal phase maneuvering the missile carries out, though the launch platform can change this at any point during the midcourse phase. If at any point in the midcourse phase the missile loses communications with the launch platform, it reverts to home on jam guidance. If for whatever reason there is no hostile source of electronic interference, the missile merely attempts to locate a hostile target to engage.
    • Terminal: The missile expends the remainder of its fuel in a sustained high energy acceleration toward the target, detonating either on impact or in proximity depending on what approach and if any terminal maneuvering was selected during the midcourse phase.
  • Waypoint Search and Destroy:
    
    • Pre-launch: The missile downloads the waypoints and a sensor map of the area of the flight path charted out by the set of waypoints.
    • Midcourse: The missile follows the waypoints using its own sensors to path find.
    • Terminal:
      
      • The missile attempts to locate a hostile target. Following acquisition of said target, the missile analyzes the area to ascertain what target it could most effectively engage.
      • The missile then determines how best to engage said target based on apparent shield and hull strength, presence of point-defense, countermeasures and jamming.
      • If the target is a capital ship, the missile attempt to find exposed or semi-exposed subsystems and locks onto them.
      • If enough interference prevents acquisition of said targets, the missile instead switches to home on jam targeting.
      • Once the target has been analyzed, the missile expends the remainder of its fuel in a sustained high energy acceleration toward the target, detonating either on impact or in proximity depending on what approach and if any terminal maneuvering was selected during the midcourse phase.
  • Home on Jam:
    
    • Midcourse: If the missile switches to home on jam targeting during the midcourse phase, it will identify the strongest source of electronic interference that does not bare a friendly IFF signature and lock onto it.
  • Inertial Guidance: Utilizing a laser gyroscope system to calculate distance travelled, the missile checks it against the previously computed distance to target and then initiates detonation based on the parameters selected at launch.
  • Inertial Delayed Active Guidance: The missile follows inertial guidance till the end of the midcourse phase, where it changes to active homing mode. This is useful for engaging targets at the end of the missile's range band, where its sensors, scanners and tracking systems may not be accurate enough to maintain a good lock and track.
  • Salvo Mode: When fired in Active Homing or Waypoint mode or if the missile switches to home on jam and salvo mode is enabled, a 'predesignated' missile will network with the other missiles launched to share data for a better sensor picture and will additionally assess the targets in the area and assign targeting including of subcomponents such as individual batteries or exposed communications equipment on capital ships and stations. Alternatively, this missile can relay this information back to the launch platform if in range, and can receive targeting priority from it.
• Launch Mode(s):
  
  • Standard Launch: If not loaded into a mass-driver missile launcher, the missile can still be launched normally.
    
    • Hot: The container's gasses are vented and the missile's engines are activated straight away following the pre-launch sequence.
    • Cold: The missile is cold launched from it's container out of the tube using gas expansion before the missile's engines are activated.
  • Magnetically Accelerated Launch:
    
    • Hot: The missile is magnetically accelerated out of the launch tube and then immediately activates its engines.
    • Cold: The missile relies on initial launch velocity from the magnetic launch system to close the distance during the launch and mid course phase before activating its engines on full burn in the terminal phase.
• Detonation Mode(s):
  
  • Airburst (I & B models only): The missile detonates above the target for a more even effect on target whilst also being theoretically less impeded by obstacles.
  • Proximity (I & B models only): The missile detonates while the target is in the missile's blast radius.
  • Impact: The missile detonates on impact.
  • Delayed: The missile detonates following a set delay following impact.
  • Post Terminal Self-destruct: If for whatever reason the missile does not detonate once the terminal phase boost is complete, it will detonate automatically at that point.
• Sensor, Scanner and Tracking Suite: The Ga'yusr Oya'karur creates a composite sensor picture by cross checking data from all of its sensors when in guidance modes where it actively uses the to acquire/track targets.
  
  • Dedicated Energy Receptor
  • Electro Photoreceptor
  • Long-range Heat Detector
  • Long-range Energy Scanner
  • Magnetic Signature Sensor
  • Gravity-wave Anomaly Tracker
  • Silhouette Signature Tracking
  • Countermeasures Compensation Computer: The C3 analyzes any countermeasures the target deploys, such as jamming, "dummy" drones, flares or chaff, and predicts the target's path. The C3 continues to make minor adjustments up to the microsecond before the missile impacts.
  • Anti-Stealth Systems:
    • Mass-detector
    • Gemcutter
    • Crystal Gravfield Trap
    • 'Sur'tra' Long-range Lifeform Scanner

STRENGTHS​

• Force? What Force?: The missile's Voidstone-Duranium exterior effectively prevents it from being affected by force abilities, friendly or hostile.
• Jammer/Countermeasure Resistant: The missile uses a composite sensor picture generated by cross checking data from its array of advanced sensors, scanners and tracking systems. This, combined with the countermeasures compensation computer drastically reduces the missiles vulnerability to jammers and countermeasures.
• Missile Deactivation Transmitter Immune: Once armed and active, there is no way to shut off the missile. Missile deactivation transmitters therefore cannot shut off the missile once it has been launched.
• Home on Jam: While certainly highly resistant to jamming, these missiles certainly are not immune to jamming. They possess a home on jam function that locks onto the strongest source of electronic interference that does not bare a friendly IFF signature.
• Stealth: Low-profile engines, Reflec-based Shadowskin laced fiberplast exterior and a Werlaara cloaking device do make the missile incredibly hard to detect by sensors, and the Voidstone-plating combined with the cloned Taozin skin inner hull liner make the missiles incredibly difficult to detect either by conventional sensors or the Force.
• Stealth Hunter: The Ga'yusr Oya'karur has a number of sensors on-board that give it the ability to potentially detect, track and engage stealth targets, true to its namesake.
• Resilient: The missile's frame allows it to weather point-defense fire and direct-attack countermeasures usually long enough to successfully engage its target.
• Fast, Nimble and Deadly: The Ga'yusr Oya'karur is extremely fast and nimble, easily able to keep up with, track and engage the fastest and most agile corvettes despite its considerable mass thanks to tis extremely powerful vectored drive and maneuvering system.

WEAKNESSES​

• Force? What Force?: The missile's Voidstone-Duranium exterior effectively prevents it from being affected by force abilities, friendly or hostile.
• It's Out There Somewhere: Targets with sensor systems advanced enough will know that the missile is present and tracking them thanks to its electronic warfare suite, however locating, tracking and engaging the missile is unlikely to be an easy task.
• Home on Jam: While the missiles home on jam capability does give it the capability to not be rendered useless by such systems, it can cause the missile to potentially lose track of its original target, such as in the case that the source of that jamming stems from another target entirely.
• Volatile (Baradium Warhead): If it takes enough damage to sympathetically detonate the warhead inside the launch tube the missile is likely not only detonate spectacularly, but likely set off other ordnance as well.
• Velocity Dependent: Ga'yusr Oya'karur models are all armed with a kinetic energy penetrator which require the missile to have a high velocity prior to impact to be able to penetrate armor and hull plating effectively.
• Sensor Range (Control Guidance mode): The missile's range is very much affected by the range and resolution of the sensor suite of the launch platform. Though this isn't usually a problem since the missiles are intended to be used by Strill Securities' flagship, should they need to be loaded aboard another vessel and fired for whatever reason this might become an issue.

DESCRIPTION​

"A missile so smart you could put a tail on it and call it a Strill."​

- Breshig War Forge Consolidated CEO Shuklaar Kyrdol speaking of the missile during a meeting.​

​

The Ga'yusr Oya'karur was developed specifically by the company to combat stealth warships without giving away to said warships that they've been engaged by enemy missiles, thus potentially minimizing or ideally removing any time the crew might have to respond. The missile is also part of Strill Securities anti-capital scale force use triad along with the nullification pods and the voidstone dispersal missiles. The greatest issue with the missile from the company's perspective like the other weapons that form the anti-capital scale force use triad is cost. Only twenty four Ga'yusr Oya'karur missiles exist, and all of them are loaded aboard the Darasuum Morut.​

​

Employing sensor fusion like all of the missiles of the new framework, the Ga'yusr Oya'karur combines the features of a number of stealth-detecting and conventional sensors, scanners and targeting systems into a combined sensor picture of the battlefield to detect, engage and track all manner of targets. With the control guidance mode of the missile, the missile can also make use of traditionally better resolution, longer range sensor suites on its launch platform, which is especially useful if the launch platform is engaging one or only a few targets and so can make use of what is traditionally better target tracking and targeting systems. In the case of the company flagship, this is certainly the case. ​

​

The missile's construction allows to both weather point-defense fire and direct-attack countermeasures usually long enough to engage its target and also gives it impressive passive stealth capabilities against force-based and sensor/scanner based detection. The missile's stealth features are further augmented by its low-profile engine and its Werlaara stealth suite which also includes a powerful electronic warfare suite. The EWAR suite, however, only engages if the missile is actively being tracked or targeted. The missile's engines make it remarkably fast and nimble, easily able to keep up with, track and engage the fastest and most agile corvettes despite its considerable mass thanks to tis extremely powerful vectored drive and maneuvering system. ​

​

All of the missiles feature a depleted baradium penetrator that's designed to allow the missile to penetrate at least some of the target's armor before detonating, thereby increasing the chance of doing damage. This does require the missile to have a high velocity prior to impact to be able to penetrate armor and hull plating effectively, however. Baradium warheads, additionally, tend to be volatile and are vulnerable to being prematurely detonated if directly attacked, which can be catastrophic if this occurs while the missile is in the tube. ​

​

Nonetheless, while not without its flaws and while costing an eyewatering amount, the missile in its test firings and extremely limited uses so far has proven to be extremely lethal. Whether this will remain to be the case on a pitched, modern battlefield saturated with enemy point-defense and electronic warfare is something that while the company hasn't tested they are confident will prove to be so. ​
