Hyena Missile Launcher

The Hyena Missile Launcher is a tail weapon available to the Liberator. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

Hyena missiles are dumbfired and will lock onto any enemy aircraft they come within a 20 meter proximity of after being fired, quickly changing direction to track the target. Though these missiles deal moderate splash damage, and can damage all vehicle types, they're most effective against empire specific fighters.

Unlike most other lock-on missiles, Hyena missiles must directly hit locked targets, rather than exploding when close. This means that locked targets receive the direct damage from Hyena missiles, rather than the indirect damage.

Hyena missiles, like all other lock-on missiles, can be defeated by Decoy Flares, with any further locks on the target vehicle being prevented for 8 seconds after the countermeasures have been dispensed.

Ribbons and Medals
With any vehicle weapon, it is possible to get both Ribbons and Medals. Each Ribbon is a standard reward for achieving a set amount of kills with a vehicle weapon. Medals relate to how many overall kills you have with the vehicle weapon.
