Ghostspike Sensor Suite​

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To create a suite of electronic warfare systems for Commonwealth vessels focused on disrupting enemy sensors, targeting systems, and communications during combat, fully compatible with CIHR, Verityne, and Strikeveil architectures

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Primo Victorian Enterprises
• Affiliation: Imperial Commonwealth of Dosuun
• Market Status: Closed Market
• Model: CVC-EWCM-S1 “Ghostspike” Disruption Sensor Suite
• Modularity: Yes
• Production: Minor
• Material:
  
  • Crystaplast-encased emitter nodes
  • Agrinium mesh shielding
  • Kyromite-tuned Verityne processors
  • Canarocite burst modulation conduits
  • Synthek interference logic waveguides

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Waveform Jamming Emitter Array – radiates high-fidelity harmonic disruption to confuse enemy sensors and fire control
• Targeting Scatter Pulse – generates temporary displacement signals to draw off smart missiles or turret targeting
• Subspace Comm Interruption Node – severs or delays enemy encrypted long-range communications
• Signature Echo Generator – creates false drive or shield signatures to mask actual ship location
• CIHR Sync Interface – tunes ECM output to local ship systems, avoiding friendly-fire disruption
• SPX-A/Strikeveil Integration – auto-adjusts jamming bands based on incoming sensor analysis or threat logs

STRENGTHS

• Disrupts Enemy Sensor Lock: Interferes with targeting, scanning, and tactical uplink systems
• Masks Ship Signature: Can hide ship’s vector, throttle, and subsystem emissions during engagement
• Missile Confusion Pulse: Decoys high-speed ordinance and guidance systems
• Integrates with Commonwealth Sensor Network: Actively syncs with Strikeveil and Whisperveil for optimized effect

WEAKNESSES

• Power Draw: Requires a dedicated power node (Blackwake Core or MCR-Kestrel recommended)
• Short Duration Bursts: Cannot maintain full-jam indefinitely; relies on pulses and staggered interference
• Vulnerable to High-Frequency Countermeasure Suites: Advanced navies may tune around Ghostspike
• Local Effect Only: Limited to tactical battlespace; cannot disrupt system-wide networks or FTL relays

DESCRIPTION
The ECM-X “Ghostspike” Disruption Suite is a modular electronic warfare system built to serve as the Commonwealth’s answer to targeting lock disruption , sensor confusion , and mid-range communication severance . It is deployed aboard strike destroyers , ECM corvettes , and recon command platforms , often in tandem with Whisperveil and Strikeveil sensor platforms .

Ghostspike utilizes a fusion of Canarocite-burst modulators , harmonic waveform emitters , and Verityne-powered interference logic to create dynamic jamming fields. Its key functions include masking ship signatures , confusing enemy missiles , and projecting false drive signals — all while carefully syncing with friendly systems through CIHR tuning.

Though power-intensive and prone to thermal overload if overused, Ghostspike excels when used surgically — in hit-and-fade operations, mid-battle disorientation, or fleet flanking actions where confusion buys time to strike . It’s not just about silence — it’s about deception, disruption, and stealing clarity from the enemy when it matters most.
