| The Anvil is a modern advanced medium nuclear missile. It fulfills the same role as the [[sts-01|STS-01]] but with more than double the yield at almost two thirds the price. ICA production is slowly shifting to producing Anvils, but the Gavel is still preeminent in missile combat due to the sheer number produced. | The Anvil is an advanced 22kt nuclear missile.

| The metamaterials used in the new warhead design have proved to be difficult to manufacture for many production plants, heavily delaying the modernization of the Gavel arsenal. Many outer systems have opted to continue producing the original Gavel design for their patrol fleets rather than risk supply issues. | The Anvil features a vastly simplified design thanks to new metamaterial advancements. |

| | While trivial for core worlds to produce, the metamaterials used in the new warhead design have proven to be difficult to manufacture for many colonial production plants, heavily delaying the modernization of the Gavel arsenal. Many frontier systems have opted to continue producing the original Gavel design for their patrol fleets rather than risk supply issues. |
