Okay, we can call it the Stuka-Crawler.

Much easier to say than alkjdowijeskj-251 in town.  :D

Oh, and by the way..... WTG Hitech.  

I can't wait for all these new editions to come out.  The suspense of getting to drive some of these is agonizing! :aok

Actually I see the M3 as getting alot more use.

How much ord can it carry besides whats being fired?
If only the 6 in the launchers its almost a certainty that an M3 escort will be highly desired to re arm.

My real question is how do you range the damn thing?

nooo, as i understand they have a few settings, but wont be aimable like our pt's rockets.

maby it will have what our guns have, vs. convergence for range.

Waiting to hear the complaints of the first guy to have the poor luck of running his plane through an intersecting path with one of the rockets lol.
