Real SRAW

PlayPR! · 10-08-2006, 12:52 AM

I checked the search and there were no post on this certian issue but I thought I'd bring it to attention. The SRAW "Predator", which is the USA AT weapon in BF2, is actually A top attack fire and forget missile sustem, much like the Javelin, except the SRAW is not nearly as powerful and is can not out match the JAvelin in range. So for the sake of realism, is there a way you could change the SRAW to be laser guided instead of wire guided? I've seen the Allied Intent mod has done this with there mod so this prolly a way to do it...

Heres a link for a little proof on the SRAW http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRAW

SRAW can also be used in direct attack mode. "For direct attacks the missile acts as an unguided, flattened trajectory, line-of-sight weapon."

There's a nice video from Lockheed Martin. Looks like it doesn't really act like the Javelin

Another video... shows a SRAW owning a bunker in 10,000 frames per second

Four second video of a SRAW taking out a tank in slow motion... good video

fire and forget ? when do we get that ? It would increase AT gunner's survivabilty considerably.
I guess we use the MPV version since it doesn't kill a tank on the first shot.

If we got the explosion size of the MPV shown I would give up the sing shot to kill a Tank. The Shaped AT version video is crazy as you see the explosion but the shaped charge is traveling so fast that it seems to only take one of those 10000 FPS to go all the way through the tank. Sheesh. I had the audio off so sorry if I missed any facts.

The minimum ranges of 15 to 25 meters would be nice to see in game if the damage was increased. As it is now if you have 20 feet you can kill without any splash damage.

Leaves me wishing for destructable environments and detailed vehicle damage.

IS the BF2 engine capable and able to model realisticaly fire and forget weapons?

ALthough i think PR is replacing present AT weapons (that could be fire and forget) with dumb fire, non guided ones.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvkoA...lated&search=: very interesting, something like that in PR would be great, if poss though. I am so looking forwed to the Javelin, even if it is 4 months away from being addded!!

Perhaps have the AT act like an air to air missile (lock on and track target)?

They're adding non-guided light anti-tank weapons

MY bad. Will the AArifle man just have the present rocket launcher BUT have the present AA non mobile launcher guidance system added on to it.

sort of twisted Frankenstien missile launcher!
