New missile type request

[Mr_sukebe]

I’m feeling inspired by the news about the Balkans map, and as such, I’m hoping that the Devs may consider introducing a new missile type, the HM1.

This is an open source missile type with the following capabilities:

- can be mounted on any airframe capable of carrying an air to air missile (ie available to aircraft of all nations)

- is a dud when fired at an AI aircraft, with rocket motor failure after 2 seconds and a trajectory of an unguided rocket

- can only be mounted on AI aircraft or SAM units 

When fired at a real player:

- acquires targets as though it’s an R73 and has the same manoeuvrability

- is a rear aspect only missile 

- emits a radar signature as though it’s an R26, including radar lock when fired

- accelerates as an R26 and has the same top speed

- on approaching its target, air brakes to a speed matching that of the target, such that it follows 200m to the rear

- in the unlikely event of it accidentally hitting the target, it will only inflict superficial damage or disable one engine

- has a long burn efficient rocket motor to keep it flying for 5 minutes

If possible, would be great to have it available in just under 5 months.

 

Any takers?
