Intent: To create fancy Ewar Tech for Mandal Hypernautics
Development Thread: NA
Manufacturer: Mandal Hypernautics
Model: MH-EW12 “Decoy Probes”
Affiliation: Mandal Hypernautics, Mandalorian,
Modularity: Civilian and Military variants
Production: Mass Production
Material: Alusteel, Electronics,
Description:
The MH-EW12 Decoy Probes are a modern variant based on the designs of the ancient Corellian Trickster Decoy Probes. Like the original, MH-EW12 Decoy Probes are capable of broadcasting electromagnetic signatures as well as an holographic image of a full-sized ship. Where the original probes where primarily designed to mimic military, civilian, and criminal ships of Corvette size or smaller, the MH-EW12 Decoy Probes are capable of mimicking the signatures of any programmed ship upto 850 meters in length.
MH-EW12 Decoy Probes are large, one time use torpedo sized devices that are self propelled and operate on trajectories plotted by an onboard droid processor. The speed, maneuverability, electronic and electromagnetic transmissions, as well as randomized subspace communications broadcast by the probe are all pre-set to mimic a specific ship. The probe is too small to implement a gravitic modulator and are vulnerable to CGT sensors and other gravity based detection methods. Similarly, close range scans will reveal the probe for what it is.
When mimicking a ship smaller than a corvette, operation times of 5 minutes or greater have been observed. Corvette and Frigate sized mimicry typically results in about two minutes of operation time, while Cruiser and Heavy Cruiser sized mimicry can result in as little as one minute of operation.
Civilian grade probes are only programmed with a single ship signature to mimic.
Military grade probes can be programmed with numerous signatures. Typically, a probe is programmed with five different signatures to choose from before a combat operation is begun. However, host ships that include advanced droid processors on the bridge can remotely update the probes with different signatures to mimic during combat operations.
