The Eraser Missile family has one purpose: shield stripping! Eraser missiles do almost no hull damage, but massive amounts of shield damage, unlike their Javelin series and Stalker series counterparts. Eraser Missiles behave exactly like the Javelin series in their homing and tracking abilities, but have the faster refire rate of the Stalker series. However, all Stalker series ammo is more expensive than the equivalent Javelin series ammo.
