Homing Torpedo

Homing Torpedo (ホーミングトーピード) is the Special Weapon that X obtains from defeating Launch Octopus in Mega Man X. When equipped, X fires a small missile that seeks out the nearest enemy. If there or no enemies nearby, the weapon will simply fly in a straight line. Despite its "torpedo" moniker, it can be used both in and out of water. Up to two Homing Torpedos can be fired and be visible on the screen at a time. When fully charged, X will fire a cluster of quick piranha-like missiles with similar homing qualities as the original.

This weapon is Boomer Kuwanger's weakness.

Trivia

 * Homing Torpedo is misspelled Horming Torpedo in-game.


 * Homing Torpedo is incapable of homing in on Sigma when fighting him in the first battle. Whether it be under normal or secondary fire, the weapon will just be fired straight forward, as if there were no enemies nearby.
