[SIZE=10.5pt]Intent: To create a powerful anti-air defence for Firemane to sell to complement the Javelin and Ballista emplacements. This writer wasn’t sure whether this counted as technology or a vehicle, so if incorrect, please move.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Development Thread: If needed.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Manufacturer: Firemane Industries and Technology[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Model: Mk1 Keraunos Missile Launcher[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Affiliation: [/SIZE][SIZE=10.5pt]Firemane Industries & Technology, closed market to approved buyers only.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Modularity: No[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Production: Minor[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Material: Durasteel, permacrete etc.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Classification: Turret[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Size: Stationary[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Dimensions: Base is 4 metres square. Turret is 6 metres tall.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Weight: 100 tonnes.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Ammunition Type: Surface-to-air missiles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Ammunition Capacity: 20 missiles before reloading required.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Effective Range: Regular missiles have a range of 5km.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Rate of Fire: Can fire any number of missiles at once, though for targeting and tactical reasons this is very unwise. Usually, the Keraunos fires missiles singly or in pairs.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Special Features:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]20 guided missiles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]3 Crew based inside the turret or externally depending on location.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Reinforced construction.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Other missiles can be loaded (future submissions)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Description:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Named after the most vicious enemy of Siobhan Kerrigan and Tegaea Alcori, the Keraunos is named after the Sith Knight Kaelin Isandros. With the death of Kaelin at the hands of Siobhan, her rather cool title came up for grabs, and now has been given to this missile turret. The name itself means ‘Thunderbolt’, which is a good name for missiles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]The turret itself is meant to complement the existing Ballista and Javelin emplacements to provide superior defence against aerial threats. Whilst the Javelin had good range and rate of fire, it lacked the ability to truly hurt fast interceptors or multiple targets.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]The Keraunos is a large emplacement. The 3 crew can be stationed inside the bottom of the turret or it can be controlled remotely with computer targeting assistance at reduced efficiency. The missiles are targeted by automatically isolating enemy IFFs. These can be set to be automatically fired on, or manual confirmation from the crew.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]The missiles have a long range and good agility, able to follow enemy Starfighters and hunt down slower enemy ships. As expected, countermeasures can be deployed against these missiles with varying degrees of success.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]The turret itself is strongly built and reinforced to resist light and medium attacks. Tank and bunker busting weapons however will pierce. The presence of so many missiles also means an unlucky strike could detonate the warheads. The turret is also, obviously, immobile, so once located it cannot move out of the way.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]The turret has launcher space for 20 missiles. This will obviously limit ammunition use in a long battle. Reloading the turret is a complex and vulnerable process that cannot be done under fire, and takes over half an hour to fully reload.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Overall the Keraunos is a formidable defence against air, but must be supported by other weapons if it is not to be overwhelmed.[/SIZE]
