Shipkiller platforms are large, Grineer built super-weapons that have been created from hollowed-out asteroids.

They can serve as both a Point-of-Interest and secondary objective, and can be found in Grineer Empyrean missions.

Features

Shipkiller platforms are large Grineer outposts that are built into hollowed-out asteroids. A large laser cannon is mounted to the top, which is used to execute any nearby civilian ships and to further enforce Grineer rule of the sector.

The laser cannon will track any nearby Railjack, but takes some time to charge up and fire. Additionally, the laser beam can be avoided by using nearby asteroids as cover, or by flying above or below the platform.

Sabotage

When sabotaging a shipkiller platform, the player must first hack a marked console to expose one of the radiators, which must be destroyed from outside the platform. Destroying the first radiator will repeat the same events as before, with the player hacking another marked console to expose the second radiator.

After destroying the second radiator, the main reactor core of the platform will be marked. A nearby console will then need to be hacked to expose the core. Destroying it will disable the shipkiller platform and fully complete the sabotage.
