History:
The second missile seen in 2044, the Mixer is an altogether more powerful missile than the Misfit, and approaches the performance of the Hammerhead in range, though not in speed or accuracy. Its seeker head, for instance, is still easily diverted, and the missiles cannot lock onto small objects, such as approaching missiles, something the Hammerhead can do.
Like the Misfit, the Mixer is a near-spherical design, possibly to make a large number of them fit in the missile banks of the Gosu. Unlike the Misfit, the future of this design seems assured, albeit in an improved form (more powerful seeker head, for instance) for sure.
