Sources within Blacksun report the development of a new targeting system to increase the lethality of missile weapons. Minister Zhou Hong Kuang adamantly denies any such research occurring."Absurd!" stated Kuang, "Blacksun develops devices such as the well-known Harpy and Roc line of devices, useful for economic stimulus through prospecting and gathering of natural resources, and certainly not used for military purposes."
Galactic pilots, however, remark on the Tac8 system appropriated from Keui station, as well as other systems developed by Blacksun. "Blacksun? Heck yeah I use their stuff," claimed one warrior who wished to remain nameless.
The prototype targeting system is meant to be used in conjunction with a cloaked ship that will transfer targeting coordinates to the missile boat. By transferring targeting information to the attacker, the lethality of each strike should be greatly increased. There are also rumors of a new missile system to directly link with the tactical information, allowing for real-time missile adjustments and an even greater attack strength.
"I can guarantee that if the Red Dragons owned such a system, everyone would know about it," stated Kuang.
