Sakarissa Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 In the old naval primer, it mentioned that as missiles/drones/fighter pulse engines were researched they would be harder to shoot down. Do better generations of those weapons get harder to shoot down? Do we have hard data proving this? Sakarissa The Circle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a battle in which my opponent had Mk V Pulse Engines ( I think they were nuclear, but don't have at my fingertips) and I did not kill a single fighter. Granted, I was not well equipped with CIDS in that engagement, but was surprised that I didn't take a few of them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobknob Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 It may be in play for fighter vs fighter stuff but I haven't seen any indication that pulse engines make much difference. Maybe with the newer fighters there will be a resurgence and the results will be more clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
