The '''SRM-1''' is a single-tube [[short-range missile]] launcher mounted on [[battle armor]] suits.  SRMs were already one of the most powerful weapons available for conventional [[infantry]], and so following the introduction of battle armor they quickly became a favorite weapon for the new suits.  More bulky than the portable launchers carried by infantry, the reliable SRM-1 benefits from the advanced fire controls and stability provided by battle armor while remaining smaller per tube than vehicular launchers.<ref name=TM261>''TechManual'', p. 261</ref>

The drawback to the small size is that the SRM-1 lacks the storage space and alternative loading mechanisms to use most specialty warheads, limiting it to firing [[Inferno (Missile)|Inferno]], [[Torpedo]] or [[Multi-Purpose Missile]]s.  Enhanced targeting gear like [[Artemis IV]] also cannot be connected to the launcher.<ref name=TM261/>
