+Tech Description:
GTM-02 Proximity Mine
Proximity mines have been used throught all warfare in all of history, the Terran Vasudan war is no exception. The Mine is
rear fired from the launching vessel and is proximity detonated to any vessel within 10 meters of it. The main weakness of
proximity mines is that they they can be shot down by an enemy, however the mines do have minor IFF capacity and do not
detonate when only a friendly ship is near, however some Vasudan pilots have used mines to their advantage by flying close
in a dogfight to detonate them and afterburn away from the explosion and the result is the mine laying vessel being
annihilated. Mines are effective in many tactical situations including blockades, defense, and for cover in torpedo runs.
