	Jet Harpoons ~~are functional in the early game and effective~~ against ~~the~~ [[Aquatoid]]s or [[~~Gillman~~\|~~Gillmen~~]] ~~that you meet. The~~ low damage of the Jet Harpoons do not ~~allow them~~ to ~~stay competitive for long~~ and ~~will not hurt the~~ [[~~Lobsterman\|Lobstermen~~]] ~~or many of~~ the ~~stronger terror units~~.		Jet Harpoons perform adequately against [[Aquatoid]]s and [[Deep One]]s. However, even [[Gill Man\|Gill Men]] typically require 3 or 4 hits to fall, and all other aliens are either mostly or completely immune due to the Harpoon's very low damage and mediocre damage type. Fortunately, in the first month those three aliens are the only ones you'll encounter, so Jet Harpoons are a reasonable armament for those [[Aquanauts]] not strong enough to carry [[Gas Cannon]]s or [[Hydro-Jet Cannon]]s. They should, however, be replaced by more potent weapons such as the [[Gauss Pistol]], [[Gauss Rifle]] and [[Sonic Pistol]] at the earliest opportunity.

	~~Initially complement them with heavier firepower such as grenades and~~ the ~~[[Gas Cannon]]. Replace them at the earliest opportunity once Gauss and Sonic weapons are available.~~		Note that the Harpoon Clip only holds 10 rounds, so bring at least two spare clips if you intend to make any use of the Jet Harpoon's autofire capability.

	~~Take care when using auto shots as the clips~~ only ~~retain~~ 10 rounds.
