|<br>The '''Interdiction sphere launcher''' is used for launching Warp Disrupt Probes. This probe creates a warp disruption bubble, with a 20km radius, that lasts for two minutes before collapsing. All ships within this field cannot activate their warp drives to leave, however they can otherwise move freely. As the field is an area of effect warp disruption method this module works even if the ship is unable to target the target. The probe is also completely independent and will keep the bubble up even if the interdictor is destroyed, however the probes can be destroyed by [[Smartbombs]]. | |<br>The '''Interdiction sphere launcher''' is used for launching Warp Disrupt Probes.

This module has no variations, however there is a Surgical variant of the probe which has only a 10km radius but lasts three minutes. | This module has no variations, however there is a Surgical variant of the probe which has only a 10km radius but lasts three minutes. | ||
The Howling Interdictors update on 27th October, 2020, added an additional variant of the probe: the Stasis Webification Probe, or 'Wubble'. When dropped, a Wubble will sit idle for 3 seconds, then detonate, applying a 30% speed reduction to all ships within 10km of the point where it was dropped. Unlike normal bubbles, the Wubble probe will not persist after it detonates, and does not otherwise interfere with affected ships warp drives. However, Wubbles can be used in combination with normal bubbles to hinder and disrupt an enemy fleet. | |||
