Description
First introduced in 2370 by the Terran Hegemony, Short Range Missiles are direct-fire missiles that sacrifice range for hitting power. These missiles are less sophisticated than Long Range Missiles and particularly effective against infantry and combat vehicles. Clan SRM launchers compare favorable to Inner Sphere designs by being more compact and lighter weight. SRMs are highly upgradable, able to fire a variety of warheads and benefit from devices such as Artemis IV FCS.[1]
Variants
Short Range Missile technology has been expanded upon since it was first introduced, most notably the Streak SRM guidance system introduced in 2647.
