- Early Earth Starfleet munition developed alongside Poseidon-class vessels
- Presumptive from "Triton-class" designation per "Minefield"
- Nuclear-based munition (TOS: "Balance of Terror"; SCE Short Story: "Foundations, Book Two")
- Latter citation given per capability of generating EMP
- Fixed yield for given missile, unlike later photon torpedo (ENT: "The Expanse")
- Low viability against deflectors; largely incapable of penetrating deflector shields (ENT: "Fight or Flight")
- Largely obsoleted by photon torpedo, but still in use by Starfleet by c.2165 (SCE Short Story: "Foundations, Book Two")
