Hiya. I think there are a few minor inaccuracies with the GMLRS M31 rocket:

- Burn time is too low. Right now it burns for 2.25 seconds, when sources show it's a bit longer than that (not sure how long exactly). It's at least explicitly stated as purposefully slower burning than the M26, which is 1.5 seconds.

- The terminal trajectory can be unreasonably shallow at times as if it's performing a pull up manoeuvre, increasing it's ability to be intercepted by shorad. Near vertical terminal trajectory is one of it's key marketed features enabling it to hit targets masked within odd terrain or between buildings, albeit it is an optional trajectory.

- The rear fins don't spin (I'm guessing this is just a limitation of DCS for now, but thought worth mentioning just in case).
