Grinch Mk 2 Space Torpedo

Description
When using this torpedo it is recomended that you also use a speed mod (A mod that increses the game speed for all ships) but it is not actually required for this devestating vanilla torpedo.

The Grinch Mk 2 is a relativley small large grid torpedo, that relies primarily on a gravity drive for thrust and features a devestating 16 warheads, and the ability to either be launched forward or out of a belly bay.

The torepedo is configured to explode aproximatley 40 meters short of the target, this is roughly 1000 percent more effective than a more traditional kinnetic strike with warheads activating eventually but it is also configured for that should something go wrong. The results of this style of attack tend to carve straight through the target ship venting a section of hull big enough to make into a hanger, and while not neccissarily being a mission kill doing more than enough damage to prevent escape. I suspect something like the redship would be totally destroyed.
By default this torpedo targets weapon systems as a sort of additional safety measure.

Well that is all the info you should really need. Go forth and see the lance of destruction this mean thing creates.


Adendum. Oops. This model is not actually designed to penetrate active defences which makes it more or less useless. I have designed a fix involving an additonal sensor that arms the warheads 10 meters before they are supposed to detonate but I am not going to bother publishing that for awhile.
