The Prophet Missile Array is missile launcher similar to the Janitor Missile Array. It differs by having more powerful missiles that track targets better.
The Prophet Missile Array's main shortcomings is its limited ammunition capacity. While the Janitor Missile Array has a sufficiently large number of missiles, the smaller number of rounds in the Prophet Missile Array preclude it from being useful in long air skirmishes. Higher capacity weapons will be needed to tackle large UFOs.
The Prophet Missile array therefore works best against single light enemy aircraft. Or to make up for the limited ammunition, it can be used in large quantities on multiple aircraft such as a swarm of Hoverbikes and Hovercars for taking down larger enemy ships. Take advantage of its longer range to keep slower ships away from enemy fire.
