- Energy use: 18 GJ
- Armor penetration: 6.2 cm

- Refire Delay: 0.4 seconds
- Energy use: 8 GJ
- Armor penetration: 5.0 cm
- Price 20,000

- Refire Delay: 0.7 seconds
- Energy use: 15 GJ
- Armor penetration: 5.4 cm

- Energy use: 22 GJ
- Armor penetration: 7.2 cm
- Price: 80,000

Price: 10,000
Dumb Fire (DF)
- Lock: None (Fires straight)
- Speed: 1000 kps

- Lock: Locks onto engine
- Speed: 800 kps
- Armor Penetration: 16 cm
- Price: 35

Image Recognition (IR)
- Lock: Locks onto shape of target
- Speed: 850 kps
- Armor Penetration: 17 cm
- Price: 75

Friend or Foe (FF)
- Locks onto nearest hostile ship
- Speed: 900 kps
- Armor penetration: 17 cm
- Price: 100
- O.F.:A good missile, and is my #2 choice. The only problems are really its speed and price, yet good for close dogfights

Price: 2,000
Proton Torpedo
