Serious injury can occur on special occasions, but TRACER minimissiles are not intended to be directly lethal or even used as an attack method, and they should not be used as such. |

- | In place of the conventional warhead, TRACER mini-missiles are fitted with a warhead that bursts into a stubborn, high tensile strength adhesive and mounted with an advanced transmission device. TRACERs are capable of broadcasting on friendly frequencies to facilitate missile locks and mark targets for fire support. In addition, they are also used to transmit overpowering dummy or decoy signals to draw away missiles or misdirect attention. Typically, they are set to transmit after a preset distance from the launch point to prevent its point of origin from being found. | + | |

- | They are commonly launched with larger amount of DARTs or other mini-missiles to increase its odds of successfully making contact with hostile forces and tracking them. In practice, the confusing property of the DART in particular can easily hide the TRACER' | + | |
