Shredder Missile Strike

A Tracking Micro-Nuclear Tactical missile is called in, striking as close as possible to the beacon. Side effects include shell shock, mutation, and/or death.

Unlock Requirement
The Shredder Missile Strike is granted to the player as a reward for completing all the missions on its associated planet (typically a high level planet - difficulty 10 to 12).

Gameplay Tips

 * This stratagem can be used to destroy mission targets (Cyborg AA Guns, Bug Nests or Illuminate Beacons) instead of the standard-issue NUX-223 Hellbomb. Like the Thunderer and Missile Barrages, the Shredder can destroy the Illuminate Beacons whilst their shields are still up.


 * The Shredder Missile is a powerful yet situational attack stratagem. It should generally be used for retreat situations and clearing out the are so that your fellow Helldivers can get their dropped equipment back with more ease.


 * Shredder missiles take 9 seconds to reach their coordinates; 6 seconds to be deployed, and 3 to hit the ground.
