GTM EMP Adv.
Tech Room Data
The GTM-14 Electromagnetic Pulse Advanced warhead interferes with the electronics systems of vessels caught within its blast radius. This renders the affected ships unable to track targets, manage communications, or gain aspect missile lock. Tactically, the GTM-14 is a very effective anti-bomber weapon, as it also temporarily shuts down the guidance and propulsion systems of warheads in flight. This advanced version of the standard EM Pulse missile disrupts subsystems at a deeper circuitry level, resulting in a longer-lasting effect.
Veteran Comments
If you're trying to get aspect lock on something, or even just trying to keep your bearings, this missile is evil incarnate. The EMP scrambling effect causes your target to change randomly, and the missile includes a small shockwave effect to knock you around and make sure you're not quite certain what direction you're pointed in.
