All of these missiles were tested on scrap CIS Military Destroyers, Kiowan Cruiser duplicates and old Monoliths.
 
 

    The Snipe is a very limited guided missile. Its lock is easily broken by a ship's maneuvering - in fact, you really can't hit anything that's moving with one of these. A Snipe does a fair amount of damage, but because it is so hard to hit anything that isn't standing still, you're limited to large, slow moving targets with heavy shields and armor. The damage the Snipe can deliver is small, compared to the amount such targets can withstand.
 
 

    This missile will pretty much wipe out one quadrant of a Military Destroyer's shields and armor.
 
 

    Although the numbers imply that this missile is more powerful than the original, in our tests it performed more poorly, taking out just over 75% of the shields and armor on one quadrant of our hapless Military Destroyer.
 
 

    The Python performed exactly the same as a Brute Mk II, only faster.
 
 

    This missile knocks a ship's speed down to zero for several seconds. The ship loses flight control, but it can still shoot, and it still has full shields. Basically, this missile puts a ship in "park," and makes its pilot mad as hell. The Disrupter is equally effective against all sizes of ships, and is especially handy against very fast ships like the Jincilla Skull.
 
 

    One Banshee will take a ship's shields almost completely down for several seconds, no matter how big the ship is. Needless to say, wiping out your target's shields can be really helpful, (especially against anything the size of a Monolith,) but you have to be ready to jump in and finish the target off before the shields go back up.
 
 

    This was our test pilot's favorite. It completely destroys a Military Destroyer, is cheaper than both the Disrupter and the Python, and works better than either of these missiles. Extended testing found the Proximity to be extremely fast, with a slightly larger blast radius than most missiles, so you don't have to aim as accurately.
 
 

    This torpedo wiped out our Military Destroyer so easily that we decided to test it against that aptly named behemoth, the Monolith. The Stingray knocked out one full quadrant of shields and armor on a Monolith.
 
 

    The Hellraiser likewise destroyed a Military Destroyer with apparent ease, and also completely destroyed a Monolith. Thus, our test pilot, tested it on a Kiowan Cruiser. The Hellraiser knocked out two quadrants of the Kiowan Cruiser's shields - which is impressive, given the size and durability of this ship.
