Quantum Torpedoes The quantum torpedo is the first Starfleet weapon to replace the standard photon torpedo first developed in 2268. Torpedo Configuration The quantum torpedo consists of a pressure-molded shell of densified tritanium and duranium. The chamber measures 0.76 meters in diameter by 1.38 meters in length and 2.3 centimeters in average thickness. Flight Systems Propulsion for the quantum torpedo is handled by four microfusion thrusters working together with standard warp field sustainer coils. Guidance, navigation, and fusing of the torpedo is controlled by the onboard computer and sensor array. |
