Spatial Torpedo Launcher

"The Spatial Torpedo Launcher is a one-of-a-kind base defense. It deploys slow-moving Explosive torpedoes in random directions with a proximity-triggered detonation."

- Fan-made Description

General
The Spatial Torpedo Launcher is an area-denial Explosive base weapon that fires volatile torpedoes in random directions. It is unable to damage the health of shielded ships.

It swiftly deploys orange torpedoes directly away from the launcher to 4,000 m range, which then slowly travel at 500 m/s before exploding at 11,500 m range. Unlike its Void variant, the torpedoes at this stage can explode on contact. Note that the torpedoes have proximity trigger during the secondary phase.

Strategy
The Spatial Torpedo Launcher gets progressively deadlier as it fires more and more torpedoes, covering the vicinity with a sea of orange. Each torpedo does a ton of damage, often depleting defenses in one or two hits. Explosive resistant shields such as the Shockwave Shell are highly recommended because not only do the torpedoes deal little damage to the shields, but are also unable to deal any health damage via bleedthrough.

Bring long-range ships such as destroyers and carriers to destroy them as soon as possible once you enter their range.

Trivia

 * The Spatial Torpedo Launcher was first seen in Altairian Siege targets after the launch of Deep Space. It was revealed after that of its Void variant.
