The Missile Cruiser is a Tech 2 variant of the Cruiser, with powerful close-range capabilities. This ship, being the second of two Missile Ships, is a glass cannon, capable of outputting large damage, but with weak shields for a Supercapital ship, and a low cruise speed. Is a good option for fighting other large Ships, including the Lancer, as well as fighting smaller ships, given proper Logistics support. It is unwise to field this ship without any Logistics support, as it can be picked off by a few dedicated Assault Corvettes, who have the shield strength to shrug off RHMs and the speed to outrun Thermonuclear Missiles, as well as weapons made for tackling large opponents..

Use

The first ship to sink to a Missile Cruiser was a Vesta piloted by CZ10_XP, who sunk to XiJinping's Missile Cruiser ("VS RAISETSU") after being trailed by two Stasis Corvettes for five minutes, with the end goal of kiting the Shuttle into a Thermonuclear Missile. This did not succeed, so the sink was executed with the Cruiser's significantly faster RHMs.
