PRODUCTION INFORMATION
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Explosive Type: Detonite triggered incendiary plasma.
  • Guidance Mode(s):
    • Active Homing:
      • Pre-launch: The missile downloads sensor data, targeting and tracking information of the target as well as the IFF codes of all friendly assets in the area from the launch platform before launching.
      • Launch: The missile acquires a sensor lock on target and begins accelerating toward the target.
      • Midcourse: Using active sensor and scanner data from its own sensors, the missile determines whether to pursue the target and detonate on impact or in proximity of the target or to attempt to intercept the target's path of motion. At this stage, the missile can switch to Home on Jam mode if the amount of interference is too high such that it loses its original target. If there is no interference yet the missile has lost track of its target, the missile will revert to Inertial Guidance. The presence of hostile point-defense is also checked for, determining what if any terminal phase maneuvering the missile carries out. At any point during the midcourse phase, the missile defaults to inertial delayed active guidance mode.
      • Terminal: The missile expends the remainder of its fuel in a sustained high energy acceleration toward the target, detonating either on impact or in proximity depending on what approach and if any terminal maneuvering was selected by the missile during the midcourse phase.
    • Control Guidance:
      • Pre-launch: The missile downloads sensor data, targeting and tracking information of the target as well as the IFF codes of all friendly assets in the area from the launch platform before launching.
      • Midcourse: The missile receives updated targeting and tracking information from the launching platform via an encrypted frequency hopping comms link. The missile determines whether to pursue the target and detonate on impact or in proximity of the target or to attempt to intercept the target's path of motion. Detonation mode and exact flight path can still be programmed by the launching platform, however. The presence of hostile point-defense is also checked for by the missile's sensors, determining what if any terminal phase maneuvering the missile carries out, though the launch platform can change this at any point during the midcourse phase. If at any point in the midcourse phase the missile loses communications with the launch platform, it reverts to home on jam guidance. If for whatever reason there is no hostile source of electronic interference, the missile merely attempts to locate a hostile target to engage.
      • Terminal: The missile expends the remainder of its fuel in a sustained high energy acceleration toward the target, detonating either on impact or in proximity depending on what approach and if any terminal maneuvering was selected during the midcourse phase.
    • Home on Jam:
      • Midcourse: If the missile switches to home on jam targeting during the midcourse phase, it will identify the strongest source of electronic interference that does not bare a friendly IFF signature and lock onto it.
    • Inertial Guidance: Utilizing a laser gyroscope system to calculate distance travelled, the missile checks it against the previously computed distance to target and then initiates detonation once the missile has reached that distance.
    • Inertial Delayed Active Guidance: The missile follows inertial guidance till the end of the midcourse phase, where it changes to active homing mode. This is useful for engaging targets at the end of the missile's range band, where its sensors, scanners and tracking systems may not be accurate enough to maintain a good lock and track.
  • Detonation Mode(s):
    • Airburst: The missile detonates above the target for a more even effect on target whilst also being theoretically less impeded by obstacles.
    • Proximity: The missile detonates while the target is in the missile's blast radius.
    • Post Terminal Self-destruct: If for whatever reason the missile does not detonate once the terminal phase boost is complete, it will detonate automatically at that point.
  • Propulsion and Maneuvering:
  • Defenses:
  • Communications Suite: When connected to compatible systems, the communication suite is an auto-negotiating, frequency hopping system with a self-modulating encryption key, making it extremely resistant to jamming and interception. The comm-lasers can mimic this by rapidly shifting their broadcast spectrum.
  • Sensor, Scanner and Tracking Suite: The missile creates a composite sensor picture by cross checking data from all of its sensors when in guidance modes where it actively uses the to acquire/track targets.
STRENGTHS
  • Low-profile: The missile has a IR-suppressed, sound dampened atmospheric-ion drive and etheric rudders scaled down for use on a micro-missile, giving it a low sound and IR profile, which makes it harder to detect and potentially harder to evade and/or intercept.
  • Fast and Maneuverable: The missile is both extremely fast and maneuverable, allowing it to potentially track and successfully engage anything from preternaturally fast and maneuverable humanoid targets to particularly fast and mobile vehicles.
  • Good Tracking: The missile has good sensors and a fast processor combined with sensor fusion, which gives it fantastic tracking capabilities. When backed up by its inertial navigation system, the missile rarely ever misses a target.
  • Incendiary Plasma: The micro missile has a blast radius of 8 meters and the incendiary plasma payload burns hot enough to potentially melt armor, biological matter including carapace and the like, hull plate, rock and even some hardened structural materials.
WEAKNESSES
  • Heavy Vehicles: The incendiary plasma lacks the ability to melt through the armor on heavily armored vehicles. Any heavy vehicles with sufficient temperature control systems or droid crews are usually not affected directly by the weapon. Though there are psychological factors to consider with organic crews.
  • Sensor Range (Control Guidance mode): The missile's range is very much affected by the range and resolution of the sensor suite of the launch platform.
  • EMP/Ion: Though well protected against EMP and Ion damage, should any damage bypass its defenses, the missile's electronics would likely be fried.
  • Micro-missile: While positively lethal, micro-missiles are still limited by the fact that their smaller warheads pack considerably less of a punch than conventional missiles.
DESCRIPTION
"Send your enemies straight to haran."
- Breshig War Forge Consolidated marketing slogan.

The Trat'aab Oya'karur-P is the first in the Trat'aab Oya'karur-series of missiles, primarily designed to as an area denial weapon as well as to engage hostile infantry but having notable anti-vehicle and anti-materiel capabilities as well. The new series of missiles are based on a scaled down version of the new framework used for the company's larger concussion missile and equivalent and assault-grade ordnance. This gives it an extremely impressive speed and maneuverability, a low sensor signature and notably excellent detection, targeting and tracking capabilities.
The new warhead has improved the the missile's lethality over it's predecessor, but unfortunately micro-missiles are still limited by the fact that their smaller warheads pack considerably less of a punch than conventional missiles. This is further hampered by fact that the incendiary plasma lacks the ability to melt through the armor on heavily armored vehicles. Any heavy vehicles with sufficient temperature control systems or droid crews are usually not affected directly by the weapon. Though there are psychological factors to consider with organic crews.
As with other missiles using the new framework, the missile's range is very much affected by the range and resolution of the sensor suite of the launch platform when fired in control guidance mode. In addition, though well protected against EMP and Ion damage, should any damage bypass its defenses, the missile's electronics would likely be fried.
That said, the sheer advantage of having an incendiary weapon explosive as powerful as this in the form factor of a micro-missile is more than enough to make up for the risks associated with the use of and the shortcomings of this weapon.
