NuclearNut Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Could we by any chance have lower yield nuclear ordinance? Like the W48 for the 155 mm gun or a M29 that can fire M338 rounds? Regardless, time to make a "CAS" plane armed with a Kompensator to strike fear into those capitalist pig-dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minepagan Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Any chance of some torpedoes, now that missiles do not (to my knowledge) explode underwater? Those would be....fun..... And (more inline with the rest of the mod), how 'bout some nuclear depth charges? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yobob Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) Hey, I cant seem to get the MIRV to attach to anything. Ive tried pretty much every part in existance and it refuses to attach, probably because it is rotated sideways. Problem is, I cant rotate it until it is placed. EDIT: Nevermind, I managed to get it to connect to the small RCS tank. It would be easier if we could attach it directly to a surface though Edited December 21, 2015 by Yobob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratboyslim Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) I would also like nuclear depth charges especially if they exist also A-10 Depleted uranium/explosive cannon rounds sound amazing if you ask me. Would be a great addition. What do people think of something like this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_13_nuclear_bomb It says an estimated blast of 32 Kilotons Or a mark 24 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_24_nuclear_bomb Edited December 22, 2015 by Ratboyslim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I'd also quite like to see one of these as I'm currently using MIRV-tipped stock built missiles as standoff missiles, but this means relinquishing control of my aircraft whilst in flight.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AGM-129_ACM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prometheus Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 So, probably a stupid question, but how do you get MIRV warheads to impact detonate? I'd like to have my missile detonate on impact, but it's not working at all... I have a weapon manager, I select the warhead, I set the trigger to active, but when I ram my targets the warhead doesn't go off. Am I missing something?

The MIRVs are meant to detonate after launch, they actually have to detach like a regular missile... and like how real MIRVs work. They are GPS guided too.

Sadly the answer is no, which doesn't really make sense. AFAIK basically every one of the nuclear weapons represented in this mod should have some form of impact fuse, airburst fuse, and remote detonator... On that note, might I request more fusing options for the warheads then? Being able to toggle them through different fuse types would be pretty neat IMO, and open up a lot of build options when using them.

Like really? No wonder 99% of people don't know about them. The only other thing that could also be questioned was the small Nuclear munitions that were devolved in the event that America was invaded, to basically tactically nuke key locations, and so that paratroopers could drop into Russia and nuke certain facilities. Now that sounds a little paranoid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other thing that could also be questioned was the small Nuclear munitions that were devolved in the event that America was invaded, to basically tactically nuke key locations, and so that paratroopers could drop into Russia and nuke certain facilities. Now that sounds a little paranoid. The point is twofold. First, the shockwave does more damage to enemy ships at a distance if detonated underwater as it tends to cause hull ruptures etc more effectively so it could be used to remove larger groups of enemy ships with a smaller charge than if you were to use a surface/airburst nuclear bomb. Secondly, it can occasionally be quite hard to pinpoint the exact location of enemy submarines, a nuclear depth charge being a nuclear depth charge it means that you can get a pretty much guaranteed kill of the enemy sub. The personnel transported Atomic Demolition Munitions (ADM) also had their own interesting uses. Due to their small size and exceptional yield for their mass (compared to C4, they are fecal matter compared to other nukes) their use as landmines would allow a small squad of troops to make a truly massive minefield, they could also be used to easily demolish structures such as bridges, dams, and dikes in scorched earth situations. And, of course, they could be used to sabotage enemy factories etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely wouldn't want to be the poor SOB stuck humping 150lbs of active nuke, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, you get a nice area denial effect afterwards, well for troops without CBRN uniforms that is, heck, even if they have full CBRN uniforms. CBRN suits tend to weigh a lot and are bulky. Of course for tanks this is not a problem, but still... I wonder what the lowest possible mass for a nuclear warhead with reasonable yield is.

Jakokidda123 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Dunno if this has been requested yet, but since you are doing plugins it might be possible. Have you ever considered making a Napalm Bomb (Specifically, the BLU-1/b)? It could be an AoE type weapon that applies heat over time, similar to the Airborne Laser Might not work, but hey, its worth suggesting i guess.

About 150lbs, as it happens. The W54, and by extension the M388, are considered the smallest practical nuclear warheads. As for CBRN troops, AFAIK most AFV's and/or IFV's have NBC protection, so that would mitigate some issues with the bulk and weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harpwner Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't spoke much, or really got anything done... You see, Christmas has been great, and I've spent record time with my family (lol). This also means I haven't had the time to come here and get things done. Progress has been made toward the blast wave (as I now have a possible method) but it's not implemented at all and only a couple fixes have been done in total, expect work to resume after new years, or if it happens soon enough, a complete overhaul for 1.1 when that comes out. I also have been hard at work for a series that is coming soon, the trailer of which is in production and uh... well taking a lot of time (It shall be spectacular!). If you aren't aware of the series it will branch off of, check out my channel and look for Kerbal Konflict. I'll provide a link to the trailer for that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Xl-uuClWIk (I know it's pretty crappy, I've improved my skills since then so the upcoming trailer will be much better lol) Anywho, down to business eh?

Napalm is planned to be another explosive type that I will add in with the nuclear shockwave effect. basically, it'll work almost exactly how InfiniteDice's skillful worked (partly because he's the one who helped me figure out HOW to do it :P) 22 hours ago, sashan said: I love your Mk.45 Also, a request, Bushmaster 2 ship-mounted gun (google it).
