Compared to the [[Janitor Missile Array (Apocalypse)|Janitor Missile Array]], Prophet missiles are a step forward and have superior performance as the missiles do more damage and are more agile and faster-tracking than Janitors.

Even though Prophets are more likely to hit the target, the Janitor array will keep on going long after Prophet has ran dry.

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.

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 Hovebikes and Hovercars for taking down larger enemy ships.
