Starship Cruise Missile Launcher

With the advent of the ground based cruise missile launchers a demand came
to design a cruise missile launcher that could be installed on any capital
scale starship to turn it into a deadly planetary assault weapon.

The TCM-SS was designed in record time using much of the same technology
that was put forth into the TCM-LS. The TCM-SS does come with an added bonus,
however. The atmospheric range of each missile has been doubled due to a
superior fire control computer.
