The Rocketeer!

After optimizing and reworking [R-DEV]Stigger's UB-32-57 Rocket Pod for some upcoming aircraft Jafar is working on, I thought it was only fitting to shove it on the back of a Technical, Libyan Rebel style! :D

But don't let its crude bit of DIY engineering fool you! Holding 32 rounds of 57mm S-5 Rockets a pop, it can be used as both a short range artillery unit, or for direct engagements of enemy positions making this something that shouldn't be messed with lightly ;)

Nope, I haven't worked it out or tested it myself yet :p

But if you want the code, it (currently, all this is subject to change) has a +30deg max elevation, fires the rocket at 75 velocity and the rocket has a mass of 10, with a drag of 0.03, but this is all very likley to change, its just the base numbers I've got right now :p

Check my replies earlier in this topic ;)

As for the aiming system, its rather crude, like the design, with just W and S for controlling the weapons "pitch" without any indicator of what degrees its at, other than visual by looking at it, or by where the rockets are firing :)
