Just for the heck of it...!

You'd hate me. I can hit things from 20km away currently. I'm working on a way to up that to about 100km.

Reliably.

Do you launch the missiles directly from your ship or do you control the missiles? I like to shoot between 100-400 meters because then I can pick out the soft spots like I did on this ship.

I guide them. It's not so easy as it sounds, given the approach happens at around 300 to 500 m/s.

We have 2 people who do that constantly.

Given all that's been said, here, I think my original munition system is probably what I'd want to stick with. I did come up with a couple of other series of munition, one where the rocket even had lander lets on the nose to open up and have like a broadhead-arrowhead type effect, but it's much larger. Tiny munitions seem to do the job fine, and I can carry more of them.

No you should see what little effect half meter rounds can have on armor.

Any data on what speed things start clipping through each other?

[Spartwo]

in the area of 250m/s

See. I wish people looked at the Gentlemens Naval Battle Club thread more often. No offence, but compared to that this is nothing.

I appreciate your candor. I'm a neophyte in the art of Kerbish combat. Just dipping the toes into the water, so to speak.

Imagine whackjob using one of his massive lander like things for a kinetic impact weapon.

Good bye everything
