Thread: UCAV

This is a new UAV unlocked from China Rising. Given the discussion of the MLRS, I'm forecasting another one over this gadget.

What it is:
-A UAV for the support class

What it how it works:
-A soldier selects the weapon and positions it for firing. A process similar to mortars. Once a position is selected the weapon is instantly deployed.

How it works:
The weapon acts similar to a TV missile, a black and white screen appears with cross hairs. The player has the ability to control the device, altering height and direction to a degree, as it flies along a straight patch. It has a large turn radius similar to the TV missile. The weapon has range of 50 to 380 meters. Guiding the UCAV to the ground directly after launch requires a distance of 50 meters. The device has a life span of roughly 10 seconds given how much maneuvering takes place. After the time has elapsed the device explodes. Standing on an ammo bag for the moment of launch requires 14.8 seconds to rearm and launch the next device. The UCAV has an explosive charge built into it. If the device is guided into a vehicle and can do a maximum of 50% damage with the ability to damage mobility and disable even against tanks. There is a small splash radius of roughly 5 feet. Impact with a soldier is fatal. The game registers the kill as simply a kill, there is no indication of cause of death.

A very good anti roof sniper weapon. Knocked out 4 with Drax just now.

Good tool for those snipers ...

SUAV is similar. What is the difference? (I don't have a UCAV yet)

the suav has a longer battery life, much longer. It is also a laser designator. If you fly into soldiers you can kill them. However there is no explosive and it counts as a road kill. So plan to fly through them.
