==Overview==
==Overview==
The M19 SSM is a [[wikipedia:High-explosive anti-tank warhead|HEAT]] and plays the role of an anti-vehicular ordnance. It possesses a blast radius of {{Convert|15|ft|m}}. As such, it is capable of penetrating the heavy armor of even the [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]; lighter vehicles, such as the [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]], are typically destroyed upon impact. The M19's blast radius is rather large, making the projectile effective against concentrated groups of infantry.{{Ref/Book|Id=enc11|Enc11|Page=328}}

==Production notes==
[[wikipedia:High-explosive anti-tank warhead|HEAT]] warheads in missiles like the M19 use explosive fillers to collapse a cone of ductile metal, typically copper, in order to form a jet of metallic particles that expand toward the target at hypersonic velocities. The tip of the jet punches a small hole in the armor while the remainder of the jet that travels at slower speeds widens the hole and provides [[wikipedia:Spall|spall effect]] to whatever lies beyond the armor.
