[edit] Overview
The Tomahawk is the weapon used only by all Commonwealth bombers, a tracking weapon that has automatic target re-acquisition and is most useful for destroying large, slow-moving targets.
[edit] Encyclopedia Entry
This heavy missile was specifically designed for use by the new bomber class of ships. The missile is generally fired in salvos by one or more bombers at relatively close range at enemy capital ships.
[edit] Commentary
An extremely powerful missile exclusive to the Commonwealth's M8 class of ship. When fired in barrages of 8 at a time, the Tomahawk becomes an incredibly dangerous weapon against battleships, corvettes and slow fighters, as well as stations. The low fire rate makes it unsuitable for launching sequentially. It is produced by all Commonwealth races and is quite common.
