M142 HIgh Mobility Artillery Rocket System HIMARS, Reupload*

Auto Credit Based on Player5e's M1140 M142 HIMARS System

I heard about the M142 HIgh Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) in Ukraine on the news so I wanted one in simpleplanes and I found the perfect design (credit to Player5e) but it had unguided rockets. So I decided to made a replica of the 6 M31 GLMRS Guided rockets the real one has and has been send to Ukraine. All the instructions are visible during flight in the instructions tab. She can go up to 99 k/ph and the LM (Launcher Module) can move 100 degrees each side horizontaly and 40 degrees up and down. She also has two cameras: one for the Driver and one for the Gunner. Each time when you select a rocket the front and back of the tube (where the rocket is located) goes away and ignites the engine of the rocket. I spent 8 hours (mostly on the Rockets cuz they kept tending on not leaving the laucher tube, witch it stil sometimes does) on making the Lancher Module and the Rockets so Please leave an upvote. Also this is a reupload so I hope that they don’t remove this one to. Thank you and have fun!

    @StepWiseWolf136 just read my reply on him and do throttle to 100%, pistons will come out and your vehicle is fully stable so the odds of a missfire will be reduced

    Yeah I know the top 3 missiles sometimes have lag and if you launch them, the missiles can get stuck behind the frame you just have to make sure that your vehicle is fully stabilised by extending the pistons (Throttle to 100 percent). That was a problem that i couldn’t fix but managed to minimise if thats what you meant. But otherwise if you want to launch the missiles you have to press ag1 through ag6 (all the missiles) and select Air-to-ground there you Will Find the M31 missiles and fire, to arm them you have to press ag1 through ag6 after that you have to fire. Please respond if the problem is fixed or if its still there. @SKYGOODBOY
