Ke-V8-W4200 - Moeru Suisei (Blazing Comets)

Blazing Comets are countermeasure devices built by Ketsurui Fleet Yards. The Moeru Suisei are small missiles, instead of a warhead they have programmable emitters. The Blazing Comets have an integrated aether generator. The generator is connected to variable emitters that will overwhelm enemy targeting systems. They are programmable and interface with other units.

History

The Blazing Comets were developed in YE 42 as part of the Ke-V8 "Super Kawarime" Fighter project.

Details About Blazing Comets

Nomenclature: Ke-V8-W4200

The Blazing Comets are deployed in groups. Depending on the mission. They can be used to hide an incoming missile strike by blinding the enemy tactical systems. Or they can be used to create a false presence, such as creating a EM (Ghost) image by programming the units to match a particular ship designs EM signature. They can also be used to hide a group of ships to allow them to get past the enemy or close enough to attack without warning.

This is the Blazing Comet in standby mode.
