- Improves the grouping size of SRM volleys by 34%.
- Does not add guidance to SRMs.
- Does not at all affect Streak SRMs.
- Stacks with TAG
- Stacks with Narc
- Does not work on indirectly fired missiles. Line of sight from the firing unit to target must be present.[2]
- Artemis

- can be applied to all standard LRM and SRM launchers, except Streaks.

Upgrade
- Mechlab Upgrade panel has an Artemis category with two options: Remove / Buy.
- The Artemis category will only show up if the ‘Mech has missile Hardpoints.
- Ability to select the upgrade will depend on availability of sufficient Critical Slots and tonnage.

- Mechlab 'Loadout' equip list will only show up Artemis eligible versions of weapons and ammo if the upgrade is installed
