Saesee Tiin halts a brilliant missile while it is in the middle of its trajectory.
The brilliant missile can be described as a type of homing missile that had the capability to very accurately locate and follow targets, to the point where some considered it to be semi-sentient. One example of a brilliant missile that was manufactured by Arakyd Industries was the Vindicator XM-15. The Coalition of Automaton Rights Activists denounced the XM-15 as an atrocity, and the Mechanical Liberation Front attempted to liberate a cargo of XM-15 missiles, but instead caused an explosion that covered a radius of 25 kilometers around Havridam City on the planet known as New Bakstre, resulting in the deaths of 14 activists.
It is documented that brilliant missiles were employed by B3 ultra battle droids during the period known as the Clone Wars.
