Range on Weapons?

[CDaws]

Does any one know what the actual range on the Pheonix is before the guide line snaps?

[Navaron]

and - Does it actually have a guide thread.........

[TerraxNovae]

Technically it COULD be a radio controlled missile, but a wire is simpler and more reliable (no jamming). However it is more limited in range, as noted.

I would like to know the max range both for wire guidance... and total flight time. Say if you flew the missile to just where the line would snap, and aimed it at a turret, then the wire snaps... how far could it travel until the warhead self destructed?

[CDaws]

Well after the wire does snap it goes into dumb fire mod and would eventually fall to the ground either by gravity or the propellent being used up, that is if it didn't hit anything first.

Gotta love that sig.

That is the best sig......ever.......

They don't self destruct, they fly like a regular missle once the tow cable breaks, and detonate upon impact. They fly true after visual is lost.

[CDaws]

But what's the range before the cable snaps and you loose guidance control?

Where's smokejumper when you need him?

They need those post statistics count thingies so we can tell where we are. I'm kinna lost as to how many posts I've made.

[Coliostro]

I just send myself a PM to find out where i am. It shows how many posts you have right under your name in a PM..Don't know why it doesn't in the forum.

[Stalefish]

So what are the posts-rank ratios?

postcounts cause spam

Edit: having titles set up this way does the same thing though, it doesn't really make sense to me
