=====Rapid Launchers===== | =====Rapid Launchers===== | ||
Rapid light and rapid heavy missile launchers are different to their standard versions in several ways. Firstly, they're designed to be fitted to the ship class above (rapid light launchers are designed to be fitted to cruisers rather than frigates, and rapid heavy launchers are designed for battleships). Like the name suggests, they fire their missiles at a faster rate than the standard launchers, but apply their damage just as well. This makes rapid launchers a fantastic option for attacking smaller ships; a rapid light missile Caracal is one of the strongest anti-frigate ships around. It should also be noted that rapid missile launchers have a very long reload time; they can hit smaller ships for good damage, but take a long time to reload. | Rapid light and rapid heavy missile launchers are different to their standard versions in several ways.

These weapons are area of effect weapons that hit anything within their activation range. Particularly effective against drones and poorly equipped frigates. Smartbombs are available in sizes appropriate for frigates through battleships and above, but are seldom used on anything smaller than a battleship. For more information, see [[Smartbombs]]. | These weapons are area of effect weapons that hit anything within their activation range.
