New Unit: Atlas Missile

Well, I don't think it would be armed that early in its flight, just in case that sort of thing happens.

... Um, I don't think "strap-ons" is quite the term your looking for Perhaps "boosters" is a better choice?

They're called strap-on boosters, with either nick used in rocketry circles. You're both right

 

[Krayzeenbk]

I didn't want to say just "boosters" because the main booster remains on the rocket. Strap-ons is just short for strap-on boosters.

-- I don't know why I should be surprised that rocketry specialists use double-entendres when naming their components ...

Thanks for the clarification!

well this explains that you are obssesed with nukes and other weapons of mass destruction. maybe you should make a chemical missle, or biological missle

 

[Krayzeenbk]

Who is obsessed with nukes I made a missile because I thought it would be easy to start with (turned out the opposite was true). Now it's turning into my specialty

@Krayzeenbk - Which Nuke do you recomend for my Imperialism mod to use as a cold war version of the ICBM?

 

[Krayzeenbk]

All ICBMs in use up to today were deployed or designed during the cold war. Which country/countries are you looking to arm with rockets?

EDIT: PM me no need to revive this thread (yet), I think this missile is ugly and am seriously considering remaking it as I get more and more experience.
