Midshipman Henry Gallant In Space (The Henry Gallant Saga) - Plot & Excerpts
CHAPTER 15 Two days later, Repulse was joined by Renown and Remarkable in orbit around Ganymede near Jupiter Station. The 160,000 ton ships were 1880 feet long and 330 feet wide. The battle cruisers carried powerful multi-warhead anti-ship missiles, called Hydra-IIIs. Each Hydra-III was armed with six W762 warheads, with yields of seventeen megatons TNT equivalent per warhead. This guided missile was designed for use against capital spaceships. It used a combination of inertial guidance and radar homing. Additionally, it used multi-radiation detection homing devices and external laser painting. It was capable of conducting autonomous targeting with onboard targeting systems that independently acquired targets using artificial intelligence with disk memory, which used radiation-resistant semiconductor RAM and enhanced capability to make positive target identification. It was capable of making precision attacks on moving ships in extremely hostile environmental conditions.
