Missiles are a guided offensive weapon that has appeared in all WipEout games, with a few variations. When picked up from the weapon pad, the guidance system begins to lock-on to the nearest opponent. A pilot can choose to either wait some time before firing for the missile weapon lock to follow the target, or fire the weapon early for a quick unguided attack.
