Overview
The I-Missile is slightly larger than standard missiles, and sports a powerful rocket engine. The result is a missile that when launched will intercept any of the standard ships running away on injectors. It is highly resistant to ECM and in fact will reflect such counter measures back onto the target which enhances the missiles guidance system. The primary advantage of this weapon is its speed, but will occasionally lose target lock, then regain it, resulting in erratic flight.
Warning
The I Missile is so fast it may slam into your ship (and be destroyed) when launched at a target in the aft view. This is primarily due to the fact that most ships launch missiles from the ventral or bottom side. To negate this effect pitch your ship down slightly before firing. By pitching down first the missile will loop backwards in a negative Y direction relative to your ship.
There is a very small chance (0.001) that NPC ships will be equipped with the I-Missile. Best precaution is quick identification and a quick exit from your ship if an I-Missile is homing in. You will only have a few seconds.
