(OOC: Alright evryone and anyone please give me suggestions and thoughts on this stuff)
Name: Gan Ning Type I LRSSM Anti-Shipping missiles
Length: 15m
Range: 2500miles
Speed: Mach 9
Payload: 1 kilogram of TNT
Penetration: It has been calculated that it would take more than three feet of reinforced steel to stop the Gan Ning from pentrating the hull of a ship. This is only theoretical though.
Description:
The Gan Ning LRSSM is a hypervelocity missile that is designed to sink ships not destroy them. This is achieved by the missile accelrating to nine times the speed of sound. it then proceedes to the target and punches a hole just above the waterline and smashes it way to the other side of the ship where it detonates leaving an unrepairable hole below the waterline. The ship is still more or less intact it is just not floating anymore. The only drawback to the Gan Ning is that it cannot travel over any sizable land mass or its delicate guidance sytems are screwed up and anything could happen.
Gan Ning launcher:
There are two types of Gan Ning launcher the first is landbased and is a direct fire system where the missile is launched horizontally this is the
fastest way of launching but since the scramjets fire inside the tube the system must have high quality shock absorbers or a mis-launch will occur.
The second method is used onboard ships and is a vertical launch system this system does not need shockabsorbers as the missile is catpulted out of the tube and a secondary rocket guides it to level flight before the scramjet is fired the of course means the missile is about three meters longer due to the extra rocket and fuel.
Huo Meng looked at the statistics and grimiced, it was his and a team of enginners job to make this bettter.
A large thud sounded throght the lab as two technicians accidently dropped the warhead and Huo Meng groaned.
