Hunter-Hawking HMX-10 Military Smart Missile

Overview

Pteradyne Tech, Weapons Division introduces the Hunter-Hawking HMX-10 Military Smart Missile, better known as Military Missile. It is an enhanced hardened missile originally developed exclusively for the Galactic Navy and the GalCop police forces. If the missile is affected by ECM the intelligent S&D guidance system will seek nearby Thargoids or pirates, otherwise, the behavior is like a standard hardened missile.

After the development of the Hawking HMX-11 Military Smart Missile, GalCop agreed to the request to offer this weapon on the open market.

Hawking HMX-11 Military Smart Missile

Overview

The Hawking HMX-11 Military Smart Missile is the next generation of the Hunter-Hawking HMX-10 Military Smart Missile. While faster, more resistant to ECM, and with an extended array of targets it got a major flaw, the intelligent S&D guidance system could be modified and turned against the creators. While, once again, originally sold exclusively to Galactic Navy and the GalCop police forces the founding of "System Guard Navies" expanded the market to trusted local navies and police forces as well. Needless to say that after the flaw became public knowledge corrupted navy and police members made a fortune by selling these missiles on the black market. Criminal hackers modified the targets so the guidance system searched for police or hunters instead of pirates.

Beware, the original version of this weapon could only be bought at Navy SecCom Stations, all offer you can find at "sleazy" locations are most likely modified and therefore might turn against you.
