"That's Sonderwang"
Type Short-range air-to-air missile
Place of origin Unified Governorates of Benacia
Designer ESB Design Bureau
Manufacturer Allied Production Matrix
Warhead Directed fragmentation
Detonation mechanism Contact or proximity
Launch platform

As the remaining stocks of air-to-air missiles, amassed by the Imperial Forces during the Sxiro-Jingdaoese Confrontation and then substantially expended during the War of Lost Brothers, inherited by the Black Legions at the time of the Kalirion Fracture were discovered to be near, or in many instances - substantially past, their certified service lifespans, the race was on for Benacia Command to develop and introduce into service replacement systems. Whilst it was fortuitous that the S-2 surface-to-air missile could be launched from airborne platforms, and indeed could be shoehorned into a variety of roles for which it had not originally been envisaged, it was a bulky missile that only larger aircraft such as the Shrike or Nereid could carry.
