  • The Exocet (French for "flying fish") is a French-built anti-ship missile whose various versions can be launched from surface vessels, submarines, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.
  • The Exocet unit is a manned hover MT slightly larger than an AC. Its only weapons are its dual plasma cannons that deal a fairly large amount of damage. The unit has an above average degree of mobility. Its armor is weak and can only take a few hits before failing.
  • Exocet is the official typeface for the Diablo franchise. It is the font for the title and most of the text throughout the entirety of Diablo and Diablo II. The font was originally designed by British graphic designer, typographer and lecturer Jonathan Barnbrook, and named after the type of rocket with the same name.
  • The Exocet project would be the largest and most prominent of rocket-based systems projects in the Bifrost program, supporting the largest vehicles and most likely the first reusable manned vehicles in the program. It would also be uniquely suited to the situation of Aquarius’ new marine-based branch of civilization, being initially based on in-water launched vehicles. In-water launch is a proven technology with a long history, having been employed in the earliest stages of the space programs of the Cold War superpowers. Vehicles are designed to be watertight or water-resistant with a certain degree of buoyancy and are simply deployed from a ship and held in vertical position for launch by a weight attached to a communications umbilical. Smaller rockets are ballasted for neutral buoyancy j

Vehicles are designed to be watertight or water-resistant with a certain degree of buoyancy and are simply deployed from a ship and held in vertical position for launch by a weight attached to a communications umbilical. Smaller rockets are ballasted for neutral buoyancy just under the water surface in order that they are sheltered from jostling by surface waves. Larger rockets can be allowed to emerge from the water for pre-launch service by boom or float platform.
