The Missile Defense System is a support device. It destroys all incoming missiles in a 300m or larger radius around the user's ship for at least 20.0s with a 33s or shorter cooldown.

The direct effect is an instant single-target energy beam that fires constantly at approximately 4 shots per second at the intended targets.
