[Weapon] Mistral [WIP]

[162eRI]

Mistral

Developed in 1989, the Mistral, a French fire and forget missile, equipped with a high technology infrared homing head, is fully autonomous after firing. Lightweight (20 kg), it reaches a speed of more than 800m/second (Mach 2.5) and its guidance accuracy, its manoeuvrability and its laser proximity or impact fuse triggered 3 kg warhead, ensure exceptional effectiveness against aircraft, helicopters and anti-ship missiles. More than 600 MISTRAL missiles have been fired under operational conditions with a success rate over 92%. Some 15,000 missiles have been ordered by eight European countries, eight in Asia-Pacific, four in South America and three in the Middle-East. It's one of the several French Military Industrial succes years ago.

Model made by Bao. Poly: around 3000. UV almost done.

after Tirak said it was a rifle I was looking at I had a quick look though google and saw there was no back on the seat.



Also you should do the missile head sticking out of the end of the launcher as a serpate object, to be added as a "dummy object" so when you fire the missile flys out basically, otherwise it will stay there

I don't think, but it would be wonderful ^^

off-topic:
We are discuting right now about TP mod (dead mod) wich gave us its models and statics (which statics will be used by the German faction for its European maps). But I prefer if an old Dev of TP mod come here to say it, it would look more official.

We saw that the vehicles and weapons are not up to PR challenge neither to our modelers like Bao who can make fine models in short time.

I know I've been annoying with my friends about this TP Mod problem, but we never had a clear answer if we will use or not their models.
For exemple, they have made fine helicopters and aircraft models, such as the Tigre, NH90 and Rafale. The NH90 and Tigre could interest German and Australian faction...
But I just learnt that Tcheky made already those models (in WIP)... So we wasted pages and threads to just take this decision to not use TP Mod vehicles LOL.
