Planet-cracker
From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki
- "Initial reports assumed these were shells for large-scale artillery, but subsequent scouting has painted a more terrifying picture. They're now believed to be powerful explosives for mining and engineering operations. They aren't giant bullets: they're planet-crackers."
- — Destiny Planet View[note 1][1]
Planet-crackers (sometimes referred to as Cabal heavy munitions) are Cabal missiles contained in crates scattered about Mars,[1] and used in Cabal fleet actions.[2]
Overview[edit]
Guardians had originally assumed that they were ordinary shells for warfare against entrenched Vex positions, but later reports showed they were actually explosives for mining and engineering purposes: potentially enough firepower to crack a planetary objects or moons,[1] with such example being that a Cabal fleet used them to blow up Hive War moons from the inside.[2]
The Goliath Tank is believed to be able to fire planet-crackers from its main cannon.[citation needed]
