R-36 ICBM/FOBS replica (now with Silo Launch System)

[Baenki]

Lemon Space Inc. proudly presents:

The R-36Orb ICBM/FOBS

Download: Stock and Mod* version http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/r-36orb/

Our Engineers worked hard, to give the best, to the ones giving us their best, their money.

This baby cannot bring death over thousands, but millions.

It works after the FOBS (Fractional Orbital Bombardment System) principle. That means it can get stable orbit and can be released whenever, wherever you want.

It has a RTG added so it has enough energy in the undeployed state.

Let me present the R-36Orb:

First stage Engine block: 3 two-chamber RD-250 engine; 1 four chamber RD-68M steering engine

2nd stage Engine block: 1 two-chamber RD-252 engine; 1 four-chamber RD-69M engine

Payload in stable orbit, waiting for deployment

The "payload": 6 MIRV (Multiple independent reentry vehicles) warheads + carrier

Deorbiting

MIRV deployment

Instructions:

-Launch with SAS on

-from gravity turn until orbit: activate RCS

Actiongroups:

1 - toggle solar panel

2 - deploy antenna

Update:

The R-36Orb got a brand new Silo Launch System, as we at Lemon Space Inc. call it.

It can now do this (go to 0:45):

The "Silo Launch System"

In action.

Engines ignite at ~200m.

Additional Launch instructions for the SLS variant of R-36Orb:

-Throttle up.

-Activate SAS

=>Launch

For a more cinematic effect throttle up after dropping the SLS (if done wrong, the rocket might break).

This version doesn´t replace the previous version.

Impressive... may I post my own version that I made a few days ago? It even has realistic warheads...

[Baenki]

Yeah. I always appreciate the work of others. Maybe I should start an ICBM showcase?
