Any questions on something we missed or weird like this just tag us both here.

Whats the verdict on "Super Heavy Concussion Missile Launchers" that are found on some ships, namely a few Mandalorian designs?

 

[Ayden Cater]

Heavy warhead.

 

[Popo]

Mkay, and assault concussion missiles are heavy warheads as well?

 

[Ayden Cater]

Mmhm. Any missile that's designed to hurt a capital ship in a significant, noticeable way way is a heavy warhead.

 

[Popo]

Understandable, though from my viewpoint on something like the Kandossi class is less ship to ship and more planetary bombardment. Same deal?

 

[Domino]

Considering the era of the kandosii ship it's likely that the designation was a precursor to the modern assault concussion missile. Most likely it was author error or wanting to make it sound more grandiose.

Each dreadnaught also had 12 super-heavy concussion missile launchers that could bombard capital ships,[2] or hold nuclear missiles to bombard planets, as seen at the Battle of Serroco.

from the wookie.
This is very close to the practical definition we give for the assault missiles, so yeah, same deal.
