Missile Tube

Missile tubes are shoulder-fired, man-portable launchers capable of firing a variety of small and deadly rocket-assisted warheads. Equipped with microrepulsors and sophisticated targeting systems, missile tubes provide incredible punch in a small, easy-to-use package.   The most common models of missile tube feature three firing modes—infrared, grav-seeking, and lineof-sight—depending on the current warhead loaded. Infrared warheads home in on a vehicle’s heat signature, which makes them especially useful against wheeled or tracked vehicles and walkers. Grav-seekers detect the gravity-repelling effect of a vehicle’s repulsor engines and perform remarkably well against fast airspeeders. Line-of-sight, or direct-fire, warheads are typically used against slow-moving targets or fixed emplacements such as buildings, bunkers, and other fortifications.   Infrared and grav-seeking warheads can be easily spoofed through the use of flares, smoke, repulsor decoys, or chaff dispensers, and use the Guided item quality in their attacks. Line-of-sight warheads are unguided, and although they require a much higher level of skill to use effectively, they cannot be spoofed by antimissile countermeasures.
