Torpedoes are multipurpose in the expanse.
The Expanse is a space opera, mystery-sci-fi drama television series based on the bestselling novels of the same name by James S. A. Corey.. Set a few hundred years in our future, the fragile relationship between Earth, Mars and the Belt is reaching a tipping point. And allow a ship to ‘escort’ others, since its defenses reach out farther then just itself?Interceptions like this are impossible in space, perhaps the smaller defensive torpedo would not have a maneuvering advantage needed to intercept, or perhaps the attacking torpedo would have already already accelerated to be much to fast to intercepted.Maybe for the price/space needed to carry a defensive torpedo, you could carry an offenses torpedo instead, so there is more value in holding an offensive torpedo to help you overwhelm an enemy ships defenses.Perhaps most likely; since the speed of a torpedo is much closer to that of a spacecraft than a missile is to a naval craft, launching a defensive torpedo while an attacking torpedo is still far off would mean that your torpedo would not be between the defending ship and the attacking torpedo by the time they got closer, (let me know if i screwed up the wording here)what do yall think, is there something in the books, or something i missed in the show mentioning this? (ENT: "The Expanse") Klingon torpedo technology of the time, nevertheless, appeared to be much more advanced than both Earth and Vulcan technology, as some of their ships were already equipped with photon torpedoes. You're better off storing more torpedoes.Torpedoes utilize Epstein drives to reach high velocities. The plume from such a drive is easily detected, and therefore avoided. This torpedo has a chance to reduce a ship's ability to resist damage as the local distortion phases the target partially in and out of our dimension. Not even all ships have Epstein drives.Tactically, by using torpedos to intercept incoming ones, one is losing their offensive capabilities.New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be castThe Expanse is a space opera, mystery-sci-fi drama television series based on the bestselling novels of the same name by James S. A. Corey.Press J to jump to the feed. The Rosi often runs low on torps before it does PDC rounds.The other factor is anti torp torps may have a longer range, but they would be ineffective at short ranges, so you would still need PDCs.So its probably much more efficient to have all anti ship torps, and then use PDCs for defense than it is to have anti ship torps plus anti torp torps and PDCsMid range weapons are rail guns.
PDC rounds are purely ballistic and are not as easily tracked. The Expanse cast discuss the fan campaign to … A warning label on the torpedo casings classified the photonic torpedo as an antimatter ordnance device that must be maintained on power at all times. 3:22.

ICBMs are basically 99% missile, 1% warhead.A ship could carry far more PDC rounds to take out torps, then it can anti torpedo torps. THE EXPANSE Filk - Remember the Canterbury by The Moldy Filters - Duration: 3:22. In the mirror universe, photonic torpedoes were already in use on the Emmette-type starships. Holden uses a torpedo defensively to save the Razorback in the show.PDC's are more commonly used to deal with incoming torpedoes because a PDC round takes far less mass than a Torpedo.If a counter torpedo is fired, it's chance of success depends on how much delta-v it has in relation to the incoming weapon, how fast it can expend it's delta v (acceleration), and the velocity/spatial vector between the two.My headcanon is the current size of torpedoes is heavily dominated by the smallest object that can fit an Epstein drive. Which is a much much bigger issue in space than it is modern navies.Also expanse "torpedoes" are missiles.
