The '''SCORCHER Nuclear Warhead Mk. I''' is a thermonuclear warhead that was stockpiled in the 2300's. It was mainly used as a counter deterrence against the URF. It was the first model of the SCORCHER series.

Overview
The warhead was mainly stockpiled during the Inner Colony Wars, until the threat of rebels seemed small. Several tests of the weapon were planned, but eventually mass-production of the weapon was halted, due to the fact that the weapon was unesessary against a small rebel threat. The warhead is a two-stage thermonuclear weapon. By the 2400's the weapon was replaced by the modified SCORCHER Nuclear Warhead Mk. II. This warhead has a yield of 10-25 Megatons.
