As comes standard on {{Class|Razor|prowler}}s, the ''Starry Night'' featured 30mm autocannons and [[M28 Shrieker missile]]s, which could be used for ground support.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS8}} In the event that the vessel was compromised, it had a [[self-destruct]] system tied to a one-megaton [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon]] in the engineering compartment, which would completely pulverize the ship, any technology or data within it, and any hostile party that may be trying to access it. The nuke was programmed to detonate automatically if the ship experienced a catastrophic event, such as a crash. However, it would only detonate if there were no live signs detected within the vessel. If there were survivors detected, the self-destruct system would activate once there had been no shipboard motion for two hours. The nuke could also be remotely activated at will by either the ship's flight commander or wing commander. The captain of the [[fleet]] or [[task force]]'s [[flagship]] could also detonate the nuke remotely.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS14}} If one was familiar with Fury nukes, they could enter certain codes to arm the device manually, even setting a timed delay if desired.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS15}} | As comes standard on {{Class|Razor|prowler}}s, the ''Starry Night'' featured 30mm autocannons and [[Shrieker missile|M28 Shrieker missile]]s, which could be used for ground support.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS8}} In the event that the vessel was compromised, it had a [[self-destruct]] system tied to a one-megaton [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon]] in the engineering compartment, which would completely pulverize the ship, any technology or data within it, and any hostile party that may be trying to access it.
