Orbital Strike Modules
When it comes to orbital strikes, there is multiple different types of orbital types depending on the damage, but using the weapons on the hulls designed for space combat is generally a bad idea because they react different in atmosphere entry which generally makes it unpredictable. To fix this problem there would need to be a new breed of weapons that is designed for atmosphere re-entry and a onboard A.I. to compensate for multiple factors to complete a accurate shot. This also depends on the type of weaponry that will be used to bombard the surface of the planet, ranging from kinetic weaponry all the way to energy weaponry. This is where the idea Orbital Strike Modules come in, modules that are designed to take up that last slot on the high slot and deliver a punishing blow to the surface of a planet.

Orbital Re-Entry Drones
The idea behind this comes from modern day military tactics that involves massive bombing ordinates from bombers that carpet bomb entire sectors to deny usage for enemy to strafing fighters who lay waste to enemy units. Dust 514 players will choose a target on the ground and request either an bomber or fighter jet to target this unit. The player in Orbit above the planet, Eve Online Player will then either approve or reject the strike on the unit on the ground.
