The TWS-9 Aindraastra Flak System, designated Burst Flak, is a primary anti-fighter warship weapon used by the UEF in the Blue Planet mod. The TWS-9 is equipped on every UEF warship from the Sanctus which equips two of these by default, to the Solaris which mounts 16.

Description

Blue Planet Tech Room Description

The Aindraastra burst flak system was developed shortly after the Great War under the codename 'Juniper' as part of a Han-Ronald project to improve warship close defense systems, but only commissioned for production ten years later. The Aindraastra suppresses an area with a spread of caseless nuclear-yield flak munitions. Ineffective against warheads, but devastating against fighters and bombers, the Aindraastra makes a decisive contribution to Federation warships' reputation as fighter-killers.
