There were three built, in cooperation of the five [[Image:Xindi superweapon.jpg|thumb|The Xindi superweapon is launched]]The '''species, with the instigation that [[Human]]s would be responsible for the destruction of the future Xindi superweapon''' was a massive, mobile homeworld in the [[particle beam weapon26th century]] designed to destroy entire planets. There were actually three weapons built.

The weapons were built by the five [[Xindi]] species in cooperation, at the instigation of the Guardians, who had informed the Xindi that [[Human]]s would be responsible for the destruction of the future Xindi homeworld in the [[26th century]]. The weapon's primary goal was the destruction of [[Earth]].

==Building Among the weapons==The weapon was designed primarily by [[Degra]], a [[Xindi-Primate]] scientist and member of the [[Xindi Council]], and constructed by the [[Xindi-Aquatic|Aquatics]]. Most of the weapon's components steps were built by the Xindi, but at least taken to prevent any one came species from [[26th century|2573]]. Another key component of controlling the weapon was the mineral [[kemocite]], which was provided by [[Gralik Durr]]'s refining facility.

Research on the superweapon was very dangerous. In September [[2153]] there was an accident in Degra's laboratory. Nearly all of his laboratory was destroyed, and It required activation codes from at least three of his researchers were killed. The loss of the data caused the weapon's development to be set back by months, which induced the Council five species in order to consider developing a [[Xindi bioweapon|bioweapon]]function.

==Probe==[[Image:Xindi probe.jpg|thumb|The Xindi superweapon prototype]]The first manifestation of the superweapon was a smallHowever, one-man prototype. It was launched against Earth in March 2153 as a test, arriving in Earth orbit through the use of a [[subspace vortex]], allowing it to bypass [[Star Fleet]] and the defense gridcould be fired instantly if all five codes were used. It wiped out seven million people, carving a swath of destruction from Florida through Cuba to Venezuela; as it did so it transmitted telemetry back to the Council. Afterward its [[Xindi-Reptilian]] pilot set it to self-destruct; could not be armed while the debris landed in Central Asia where it propulsion system was recovered by a [[Vulcan transport]] and then analyzed by Star Fleetonline.

==Second prototype==The weapon(s) design primarily came from a [[Image:Calindra_System.jpg|thumb|The second prototype in the Calindra SystemXindi-Primate]]The second superweapon prototype was unmanned scientist and test-fired in a "proving ground" in member of the [[Calindra systemXindi Council]] inside , and constructed by the [[Delphic ExpanseXindi-Aquatic|Aquatics]], under the supervision . Most of Degra himself in December 2153. The tests did not go as planned, as the weapon's materials had been sabotaged components were built by the Xindi, but at least one came from the future cooperatives, and the year [[Gralik26th century|2573]] . Research on behalf the concept of [https://memory-alphaa superweapon was very dangerous.fandom.com/wiki/Jonathan_Archer Jonathan Archer] of In September [[Enterprise (NX-01)|''Enterprise''2153]]. The weapon there was subsequently stolen by an accident in one of the [[Andorian]] warship ''[[Kumari]]''. The Andorians had hoped to take it home to use as a deterrent against laboratories, in which nearly all of the Vulcans. It lab was destroyed when [https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/T%27Pol T'Pol] entered the activation codes , and issued an overload commandthree researchers killed. The loss of data caused the weapon''Kumari'' jettisoned the prototype before it explodeds development to be set back by months, but which caused the shockwave caused significant damage Council to the power and engine systemsconsider developing a biological weapon in its place.

==Final weaponFirst Weapon: Probe== [[ImageFile:Archer escapes from Xindi superweaponProbe1.jpg|thumb|Superweapon core prior to destructionright|Xindi's First Prototype Weapon]]The final version first manifestation of the weapon superweapon was substantially larger than its two predecessors and was designed to be manned by a [[skeleton crew]]small, one-man prototype. It was constructed launched against Earth in secret on March [[Azati Prime (planet)|Azati Prime2153]]as a test, though when arriving in Earth orbit through the ''Enterprise'' discovered it thereuse of a [[subspace vortex]], allowing it was moved to the bypass [[Xindi Council planetStar Fleet]]and the defense grid. When it became apparent It fired a particle beam that Captain Archer was becoming successful in convincing wiped out seven million people, sending telemetry back to the Council to delay at the same time. After the attack on Earth, Commander [[Dolim]]'s forcesjob was done, working in concert with the [[Xindi-Insectoid|InsectoidsReptilian]], hijacked the weapon. They also kidnapped ''Enterprise'' linguist {{MA|Hoshi_Sato|Hoshi Sato}} and brainwashed her into decrypting the third activation codepilot engaged self-destruct.

==Second Prototype==The second superweapon prototype was unmanned and test-fired in a "proving ground" inside the [[Delphic Expanse]], late 2153. The tests did not go as planned, as the weapon's materials had been sabotaged. The weapon was subsequently stolen by an [[Andorian]] warship, with the hope using it as a deterrent against the Vulcans. It was destroyed when members of the [[Enterprise, NX-01|Enterprise]] entered the activation codes and issued an overload command. The Andorians jettisoned the prototype before it exploded, but the shockwave caused significant damage to their power and engine systems.     ==Final Weapon== [[ImageFile:Xindi superweapon destroyedweapon.jpg|thumb|The Xindi superweapon is destroyedright|Final primary weapon]]The final version of the weapon emerged was substantially larger than its two predecessors and was designed to be manned by a skeleton crew. It was constructed in Earth orbit ten hours latersecret, and when the [[Enterprise, NX-01|Enterprise]] discovered it, but very close behind it was quickly moved. When it became apparent that [[Enterprise, NX-01|Captain Archer]] was becoming successful in convincing the Council to delay the attack on Earth, a faction within a faction, working with the [[Degra's shuttleXindi-Insectoid|vessel of the late DegraInsectoids]], manned by hijacked the weapon. They also kidnapped ''Enterprise'''s linguist, brainwashing her into decrypting the third activation code.  ''Enterprise'' personnel including Jonathan Archer, along with forces of the [[Xindi]] [[Xindi-Primate|Primates]], [[Malcolm ReedXindi-Arboreal|Arboreals]], and Hoshi Sato[[Xindi-Aquatic|Aquatics]], attempted to stop the weapon from entering the vortex to Earth. However, as well as they were repelled by a [[MACOXindi-Reptilian|Reptilian]] and [[Xindi-Insectoid|Insectoid fleet]] squad. The Reptilians and Insectoids were assisted by the creation of numerous anomalies by the Sphere-Builders (who had been the ones to tell the Xindi the humans were dangerous). One ship of each race escaped into the vortex created, with the weapon. The Insectoid ship was shortly destroyed by the Reptilian one, however, when its commander questioned the other.   The weapon emerged in Earth orbit ten hours later, but close behind it was a shuttle manned by ''KumariEnterprise'' personnel.  An Andorian ship ran interference for Degra's lightly-armed vessel, enabling the ''Enterprise'' team to board the weapon and destroy it by overloading its reactor. Captain Archer was thought killed in the attempt. The only known way to deactivate the weapon was to turn a set of white tubes to cut power. Explosives could then destroy the turning sphere at the core of the weapon.     [[category:intelligence]][[Category:Historical Archives]][[category:misc tech]]
