@TrislandianAlliance Yeah, I try to mention that fact as much as possible because (A) the Cold War is fascinating (B) the Soviets made amazing aircraft and (C) some of the nicknames are hilarious. FROGFOOT!
@asteroidbook345 I modeled the appearance of these missiles after the older Raduga Kh-22 series for that "height of the Cold War" feel. The missiles themselves are a little bit slower than the real thing to ease the process of finding, aiming and hitting g the target, but I made sure to include enough Boom 50's (4 hidden inside each missile) to simulate the damage of a real non-nuclear Kh-22 warhead. A single hit should be enough to destroy just about anything.
@TrislandianAlliance The super powers did not always formally announce new military equipment, often waiting years to even acknowledge the very existence of some weapons or aircraft. As a result, NATO forces used a system of euphemisms for Soviet-aligned aircraft so that they could easily be identified. Fighters were given F names, bombers B names, helicopters H, etc. You can learn more HERE.
