	Unlike the old FS1 [[GTM Fury]] this thing can actually totally destroy shields and hulls, even on fighters. If you remember that mission where you first encounter the Shivans in FS1, and the best missile to use was the Fury, well, this thing would make things much, much easier, because this one can damage shields. This missile is good against cruiser-sized ships if you have a fighter with a big missile bay, like the [[GVF Tauret]].

			If you hate those thick, pesky Seraphim and Nephilim bombers, and they're too close for Trebuchets plus/or you feel like you wasted a lot of gun energy on them, a handful of Tempests can kill them rather quickly on Medium and below, given you strip a shield quadrant first.

	I would think that the Tempest is more of the [[GTW Subach HL-7\|Subach]] of GTVA missiles. It could be put to use in any role on any ship. Especially useful is when it is used in conjunction with the Subach itself; the lasers deplete the shields and the Tempests start ripping the hull to pieces. This is also probably the most useful missile you can cram onto a stealth fighter like the [[GTF Pegasus\|Pegasus]], as it takes up very little space and you could store up to 120 of these on such fighters. Furthermore, it is an alternative to using other missiles that take up lots of space, like the [[GTM Tornado\|Tornado]] or [[GTM MX-64\|Rockeye]], on heavy assault fighters. Try loading these onto an [[GTF Ares\|Ares]] or a [[GVF Tauret\|Tauret]] to get what I mean.}}

	{{Comment\|I like to use the Tempest against fighters / bombers along with guns that move at approximately 450mps, like the [[GTW Subach HL-7 ]] or [[GTW Circe]], so that the lead aim is approximately the same. As your primaries create a hole in the ~~targets~~ shield, the rockets will go through and quickly tear up even tough targets like the [[GTB Ursa]] or the [[SF Basilisk]]. Against cruisers this weapon works equally well, a Myrmidon with [[GTW Subach HL-7]]s and Tempests can take down a [[GTC Fenris]] or a [[GTC Leviathan]] in seconds. This missile also works moderately well against large targets subsystems, if you find yourself without better tools for the job.		{{Comment\|I like to use the Tempest against fighters / bombers along with guns that move at approximately 450mps, like the [[GTW Subach HL-7 ]] or [[GTW Circe]], so that the lead aim is approximately the same.

 The GTM MX-6 Tempest improves upon its predecessor, the Fury missile. Faster and more deadly than the GTM Fury, the Tempest is also smaller, enabling flight crews to load more into each Secondary weapon bay. The Tempest is a dumb fire missile, moving in a straight line from its point of release. The missile detonates when it strikes a solid object or when it reaches its effective range of approximately 600 meters. Tempests are best used at close range. With a velocity of 360 m/s, nothing outruns a Tempest.
