Name:  Arrow IV System
Type (Category):  Weapon (Area-Effect)
Reference:  Tactical Operations: Advanced Units & Equipment (p. 96)

Description:
Loosely based on short-range ballistic missile technology, the Arrow IV system is a sophisticated, missile-based artillery weapon that debuted during the Age of War. Lost after the last of the Terran Hegemony’s major producers were destroyed in the wake of the Star League’s collapse, the technology was revived by Capellan engineers—armed with the knowledge of the Helm Memory Core—from the handful of mothballed samples they unearthed in the mid-3040s.

Game Rules:
The Arrow IV Artillery Missile launcher uses the standard rules for Indirect Artillery and Direct-Fire Artillery, as well as Counter-Battery Fire, but can also employ specialized homing rounds that work in conjunction with friendly Target Acquisition Gear (TAG) systems.
