The GTI TAG-A Missile


Tech Room Data

The TAG-A missile was conceived during the GTVI's top-secret stealth technology research projects. The missile was manufactured and swiftly pressed into service as a means of counteracting the sensor-disrupting effects of the recently discovered Knossos nebula. Upon impact with a hard surface, the TAG missile adheres and activates a small, short-lived electronic beacon. This beacon is powered by a small fuel cell with a usable lifetime of several seconds. During this time, it broadcasts location and targeting information to all friendly ships within range.

Veteran Comments

The TAG weapons seem ineffective in anything other than the properly FREDed mission, the only one in the Freespace 2 campagin (as far as I know) is A Game of TAG, beyond that single mission, I don't think they really have any use.

If this was used by warships instead of fighters, I would be quite wary of this. However, it is not, and therefore I shall scorn it to death.
