That assumes aircraft with aerodynamic lift. TL10 is the period of transition, with vectored thrust from fusion-powered ducted fans or reactionless thrusters. > I wouldn't use the top speeds by TL for missiles in VE2, as they seem > rather generous. 3,000-4,000 yards/second would be about my upper > range at TL10. Depends on the size. For weights in the two figures, yes. For higher weights, maybe not. > An APEX warhead needs a really fast missile or rather large warhead. HEAT makes a small hole and at TL8+ it probably won't start a fire.
