Shaped Charge (TL9)
This is a precision shaped charge with secondary explosive and fragmentation effects. The explosion forges the warhead into a high-velocity, high-temperature metal jet which can punch a small hole through most types of armor.
These warheads are available for any 25mm or larger round. Grenades and satchel charges use the damage listed below, and must be placed on the target rather than thrown. Guns and launchers replace their normal piercing damage with the damage shown below.
