Counter UAS System

[+Coupi 4,598]

Hello !

I'm testing a "low cost" counter UAS system.

I would like to simulate the APKWS. In real life it is being developed from the LAU-131 rocket pod.

Here the first tests... from the excellent and beautiful mods by our friend Ravenclaw_007. 

Current TEST SF2 spec. :

- IRM (laser guided in real life)

- I only use 12 rockets (2 x 6), 

- "2IR" system launch (converted in order to fire the "rockets")

- original mod rockets (the real rockets are specific and longer)

- range, weight, etc... (to be improved)

that actually brings up and interesting question :: how to create (or simulate) drone swarm attacks? Since the game will treat them like any other AI controlled birds

You should be able to in the ME at least, with the max amount for the flight or whatever.

like tiny cruise missiles?

Question becomes what do you use as the source of the launch? Backfires? C-130s?

why not 18 wheelers? theres plenty who've made tanks and ships "flyable". load up a truck with a bunch of "CM"s and then have a convoy attack a target. wouldnt even need to be flyable,  just able to carry and launch Shaheds

dammit i wish i could model.  so many recently read threads coming together here at the moment.......
