The Heroes Nation of -Scaevola- will neither confirm or deny a development program for or possession of nuclear weapons, but we do wish to publicize these newer and currently in development weapons systems. Take this announcement, as you will. Any diplomatic commentary/start of round table talks, is welcomed.
LGM- 110 “Janus” Mobile ICBM
Power:
First Stage: 2.1 MN thruster “Anteus” SR101 solid fuel motor;
Second Stage: “General” SR109 solid fuel motor;
Third Stage: “Impala” SR120 solid fuel motor,
Fourth Stage: “Mercury” re-startable liquid fuel motor; (using hypergolic fuel)
Length: 20.5 m
Diameter: 2.4 m
Mass: 86.5 metric tons
Range: 9,500 km
Guidance: Inertial Laser Ring (200 m CEP )
Payload: 3650 kg, (up to 6 Mk-10 MIRVs with a 270 kg warhead of various type, or one 3265 kg warhead of various type)
Primary Function: A rail based mobile ICBM system with multiple hardened launch points. Due to be replaced with the proposed “Krill” SLBM when the its development is deemed successful.
Number in service: 40
AAM-21 “Bolt”, SAM-23 “Prodd”
Power: Samson Mk23 dual-thrust solid fuel rocket
Length: 3.7 m
Diameter: 28 cm
Mass: 235 kg
Speed: Mach 4
Range: 70 km at 3050m altitude or 30 km at sea level
Guidance: Inverse Monopulse Radar Seeker, improved auto-pilot mid-course software
Payload: 40 kg blast/fragmentation or other warhead
Primary Function: This is the standard medium interception anti-aircraft missile used by the forces of -Scaevola-. It was first designed as an air launched missile system, but recently has been adapted to ground/ship launch use as the SAM-23. Its possible use as a nuclear delivery system would be limited to tactical attacks versus massed air attacks.
Number in Service AAM-21: 1200 , SAM-23: 500
Mk-30 and Mk-32 Torpedoes
Mk-30
Length: 5.85 m
Weight: 1,630 kg (Mk-48); 3,695 lb (1,676 kg) (Mk-48 ADCAP)
Diameter: 635 mm
Range:6+ km
Max. Depth: Greater than 370 m
Speed: 33+ kt
Guidance System: Ballistic entry with passive/active acoustic homing or pre-set path.
Warhead: 350 kg high explosive or other warhead
Power Plant: Swash-plate piston engine
Primary Function: Water homing stage for a stand-off, missile launched, anti-submarine system similar to ASROC. A recent non-original design usage during war games involved a programmable ballistic shallow running pattern and passive homing for a submerged vertical under the bow attack on major capital ships and/or escorts.
Number in service: 400
Mk-32
Length: 5.9 m
Weight:1,680 kg
Diameter: 635 mm
Range:8+ km
Max. Depth: Greater than 400 m
Speed: 70+ kt
Guidance System: Wire guided and passive/active acoustic homing
Warhead: 350 kg high explosive or other warhead
Power Plant: Pump jet
Primary Function: Heavyweight torpedo for submarines in either an anti-submarines or anti-surface combatant role.
Number in service: 600
UGM- 100 “Krill” SLBM
Power: (As currently proposed)
First Stage: “Hostel” SR110 solid fuel motor;
Second Stage: “Impala” SR120 solid fuel motor,
Length: 10.4 m
Diameter: 1.85 m
Mass: 87.3 metric tons
Range: 5,190 km
Guidance: Inertial (200 m CEP )
Payload: 6x Mk-10 MIRVs with 270 kg warheads
Primary Function: The UGM-100 will be the first strategic SLBM in the –Scaevola- arsenal, being development in tandem with the ballistic missile submarine class “Mus.” The first prototypes will be flown later this year. It is slated to be the replacement for the LGM-110 and eliminate the need for any future land based ICBMs. It will not be able to carry a single large warhead. The main hope is that by switching to the UGM-100 there will be more time to assess a situation before committing to point-of-no-return mass missile launch.
Number in service: 0 (projected: 40)
SSCM – 100 “Corvus”
Power: (proposed) Two-stage integrated rocket/ramjet
Length: 8.5 m
Diameter: 63 cm
Mass: 3,100 kg
Range: 290 km
Guidance: Inertial
Payload: 310 kg conventional semi-armor piercing warhead or other warhead.
Primary Function: This new generation of super fast anti-ship missiles, its development has been delayed by technical and reliability issues in the thrust package. When complete it will be a formidable weapons system and will have applications beyond its current anti-ship mode.
Number in service: 0
