Notes
Mine Strike is a very powerful ship system. Even improperly used, it can create distractions for the enemy AI and PD fire, and force ships to turn their shields or risk significant damage. A properly placed mine can kill whole fighter wings or damage multiple too-closely-packed ships.
The Doom stores five mines at once, which recharge over time (one every 5 seconds) and have a range of 1500 units. The Star Fortress's Station Battery Modules have an improved version with a 3500 unit range and seven stored mines, recharging every 3 seconds.
The mines are considered medium missiles and therefore benefit from (Elite) Missile Specialization skill. They are also affected by Target Analysis.
