A Torpedo is a weapon designed to combat targets much larger than the delivering vessel.  There are two types, Fighter Torpedoes and Bomber Torpedoes.  
+
A '''Torpedo''' is self-propelled projectile weapon, similar to a [[Missile]], but with a much larger payload. Torpedoes also use specialized hard-points, and can therefore only be equipped on ships that are designed to use them. Typically this limits their use to [[Bombers]] and large [[Fighters]] (some small fighters also allow them to be used).
Both fighter and bomber torpedoes have two types: dumbfire, which damages only the target hit and travels in the direction fired, and seekers, which damages anything within the explosive radius of the point of impact.

[[Bomber Torpedoes]] have a much larger payload than [[Fighter Torpedoes]], however they also consume more energy, are more expensive, and are less agile. All of the Torpedoes are heavier and slower than Missiles.

Torpedoes explode when they hit their target, or when they reach the end of their life. Explosion damage does [[Direct]] damage to everything within the explosion radius. This includes any unshielded equipment, such as the target's guns and support equipment.

A Torpedo is self-propelled projectile weapon, similar to a Missile, but with a much larger payload. Torpedoes also use specialized hard-points, and can therefore only be equipped on ships that are designed to use them. Typically this limits their use to Bombers and large Fighters (some small fighters also allow them to be used).

Bomber Torpedoes have a much larger payload than Fighter Torpedoes, however they also consume more energy, are more expensive, and are less agile. All of the Torpedoes are heavier and slower than Missiles.

Torpedoes explode when they hit their target, or when they reach the end of their life. Explosion damage does Direct damage to everything within the explosion radius. This includes any unshielded equipment, such as the target's guns and support equipment.

Some torpedoes are energy-based projectiles, and require significant amounts of power from the ship's main power plant to fire. Some are physical-form weapons that require ammunition, which is limited to 70 rounds on the Discovery 24/7 RP Server.

Fighter Torpedoes

Almost all of the Very Heavy Fighters and Super Heavy Fighters are able to support Fighter Torpedoes. Some of the smaller fighters also have hard-points that support these weapons, but most of those ships do not allow them to be mounted.
