* | * Ballistic Control Systems: these are passive, low slot modules which increase missile damage and rate of fire. Stacking penalties apply. It is not unusual to see two or three of these in a larger missile ship. | ||
* Missile Guidance Enhancers | * Missile Guidance Enhancers: these are active, mid slot modules that give bonuses to missile velocity, missile flight time, and explosion velocity; while shrinking the explosion radius. Stacking penalties apply. | ||
* Missile Guidance Computers | * Missile Guidance Computers: these are active, scriptable, mid slot modules that give bonuses to missile velocity, missile flight time, and explosion velocity; while shrinking the explosion radius. Stacking penalties apply. (Using ‘Missile Precision Script’ or ‘Missile Range Script’ you can double either missile range and velocity OR explosion velocity and radius; while reducing the other by half.) | ||
* | * Signal Amplifiers increase a ship's maximum target acquisition range. Stacking penalties apply. | ||
* | * Target Painters increase the signature radius of a target and make it easier to hit. Stacking penalties apply. | ||
