[GEN 2] AIM-7L Rhino Air Interception Missile

AIM stands for Air Interception Missile.

Credit goes to Triton Aerospace for allowing the use and modification of his guidance computer, and to Alpha Space Technologies for developing the missile itself. Launching jet in picture is made by Beacon Industries and Alpha Space Technologies.

This weapon is compatible with all Alpha Space Technology developed aircraft with 2nd gen Fire Control System. Just select a target on the jet, and deploy ordinance via Activation group powered Fire Control System on board said jet (FCS instructions sold on separate aircraft). The AIM-7L will automatically fly towards to target and detonate upon impact, if within physics range.

The AIM-7L is the largest missile ever developed by Alpha Space Technologies so far! Featuring a sleek, yet large airframe to carry lots of fuel, it is also very aerodynamic and can go the distance.

In fact, the AIM-7L is the longest range working air to air missile on the entire Juno platform, one of the most accurate, as well as one of the fastest! This missile, even more accurate and deadly than the AIM-3B, features a shell shocking 25m proxy fuse, that vaporize any target within its vicinity.

And dont let its heavy airframe fool you! once its fuel is shed off, the missile becomes surprisingly nimble, with its large fins to help guide it through atmosphere, thick or thin! It then has all the speed in the world, with a light dry mass, and a sheer will to destroy, helping it to hit even the most maneuverable, evading targets.

And due to its ridiculously large rangeband, it is a great weapon for firing upon far distance AWACS, approaching bombers, or even other fighter jets, and is surprisingly effective against long range sneak attacks, where decreased reaction time and early, unnoticed strikes are necessary.

With this new missile, there is no dodging, no fuse hiccups, no guidance errors, and no more playing the game of risk. With this missile by your side, its time that YOU start winning. So what are you waiting for? Add this missile to your fleet today!
