[EPN] R-69 "ASSRAM" Short range AAM/SAM

ASSRAM

The Advanced Short Situation Radar-guided Aerial Missile!


A powerful and manoeuvrable killer, this 1x2x18 missile punches well above its size and weight class. If you have extra hardpoints, and can't fit larger missiles, then this is the way to go. For helicopters, this is the recommended missile for defending against enemy aircraft, as its size and weight is very small. This missile's closest IRL counterpart is the AIM-9M.

If you seek to know exactly what this can hit, it can rear intercept targets 369m/s or more, and it has a 90% hit chance on a 190m/s target manoeuvring hard. The in-between stuff is for you to find.

With active radar EPN guidance coupled with its diminutive size and powerful motors, this missile offers a replacement to the following missiles, with virtually no downsides.

• NNTC "Phosphor"
  
• NNTC "Shock"
  
• ZE Boop
  
• Newquay AIM-3

The list is not exhaustive.

to Lassi for designing the original guidance computer and implementing the EPN algorithm, Feldesign for getting shot over 300 times, and Sid for writing the description. Thanks a lot, guys.

Size- 1x2x18
Range (Motor)- 2 to 4 km
Range (Seeker)- 1 km
