Mickks Vertical Launch Box

2,269 Mickk  4.9 years ago

I got bored while I was working on a weapon system and decided to do something mildly creative to test them.

This is what happened.

The cockpit is high enough off of the ground to be able to target the fleet that is off of "Wright Airport".

The A/G weapons have had the range extended so they can target the fleet.

I wanted to see how they would act from a vertical launch.

Of course, with any weapons system you need countermeasures. They are on that thing sticking out so the countermeasures are well away from the box.

Fun for a few minutes and I have my weapons tested and ready for fitting.

Now all I need to do is make the actual system and figure out why the wings keep falling off of the plane!

    As far as I know, there are only two places where you can target the Fleet from, Wright Airport and Wright Isles North Runway, but from the North Runway you will have to add more height to be able to get a target.
