Hey Pete, well I had a quick look for ideas on how to go about this, and I guess the question is how maney rockets you want it to hold. There is an easy way, but with few rockets, and a hard way (that I dunno how to do but you might).The easy way is in the pic below.. I added more rockets to the A4, and it would be a simple step to enclosed these within a model made to look like the system you want. The hard way is working out all the ordpoints positions for a completely new one, but I don't know how to position each rocket in/on a model. In this pic the A4 is now loaded with 4 rockets on the right wing, which could be enclosed within the cylindrical launcher very easily, but only gives you a total of 8 rockets when really it should have maney more.
 I'll think about it more though and if I come up with something better I'll let you know ~Nat~ ------------------

Thanks! I haven't even begun to look at doing ordinance yet for this thing. This may be a big help.  ------------------

Check out the Me262's rocket rack. It has 12 ord positions. Petes I can position all the rockets in the pods for you if the pod's model is done and stuff in OP is set up  ps: What rocket pod? LAU61 or LAU10? 61 holds 38 2.75 inchers, LAU10 holds 4 5 inch rockets per pod. IP: Logged |

I'm not sure, I guess whatever you think would work best. Let me know and that's the one I'll model.

THe 61 would be harder to do, but better to use.IP: Logged |

Well, I think the LAU10 Zunis would be a better choice. The max load would be 16 5 inchers. Easier to do and less FPS-intensive. We can't be hand-placing 64 rockets,lol, at least not in a short time So as summarised, LAU10 with the 5 inch rockets already included in SDOE --------
oops, it should be 19 2.75 inch per pod in LAU61. [This message has been edited by CrossbowArcher (edited 08-18-2000).] IP: Logged |
