The icon of the T'au Empire.
An Early Warning Override is an advanced T'au sensor suite, similar in construction and use to a Counterfire Defence System, that has been calibrated to detect the electronic signatures of teleport beams and orbital-entry jump systems, which allows for the accurate prediction of flight paths and other movement vectors.
If such a signal is detected, the system jolts a T'au Battlesuit's weapons to lock-on status and firing before the target has a chance to react. This support system is available to deploy on most forms of T'au Battlesuit.
