| The ST/Medusa missiles are mounted in pods on Nandao, Sabre, Pegasus, and Broadsword starfighters, one pod on top of each wing.{{Ref/Reuse|Manual}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc11}}{{Ref/Book|Id=H4VG|H4EVG|Page=114}} The missiles are fired in salvos of two each, and have lock-on capability. One salvo is sufficient to destroy a [[Elsedda-pattern Banshee|Banshee interceptor]] and even an unshielded [[Type-31 Seraph|Seraph fighter]].{{Ref/Level|HR|Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace}} The missiles can lock-on from long range and the amount of missiles that hit the target is determined by the time spent locking on, although even one or two missiles can prove deadly to most targets.
| | '''Medusa Missiles''' are one of the armaments stored on [[YSS-1000 Sabre|YSS-1000 Sabres]]. They are launched in salvos of four, and have lock-on capability. One salvo is enough to destroy an unshielded [[Seraph-class Starfighter]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', ''[[Long Night of Solace]]''</ref> |
