    I…can’t think of a single munition in inventory that wouldn’t obliterate a cybertruck.

      While it’s not an offensive weapon, it could still light the truck on fire if the pilot trys hard enough.

        These are just chaff. No incendiary component.

          Yes. I have enough faith in fighter pilots ability to figure it out. The chaff rockets do burn pretty hot.

      I had no idea that chaff cartridges were so small, thanks I learned something today. You’d probably want the impulse cartridge to take out a cybertruck, but a bunch of chaff might shortcircut something.
