NB-HKF M1 "Thor AP"

Description
The Nuclear Boosted High Kinetic Fragmentation missile Model 1 "Thor AP" is a fragmentation missiles, designed to punch throw heavy armor, devestating modules behind it. The principle of its function is this (note: this isn't how it works in game, it just makes a pretty pattern, but the principle behind the design): The missile accelerates to 5km/s and 5 small nuclear bombs with fragmentation payloads attached to them are launched at 450m. Shortly after, the main osmium fragmentation payload in missile detonates, the nukes just after. (In theory) the deotonating nukes accelerate the main shrapnel wave further, while expelling their own lead fragments in circular disks. The lead fragments from the 5 nukes are faster than the main osmium fragments, carving a pentagram shape into the targets armor at least and hopefully the internal structure (in practice, slicing completely through the ship). Shortly after this the main shrapnel cloud hits, punching through the weakend pentagon of armor and structure, idealy spreading it evenely across the intirior of the target.
