SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Tracking HUD within scope that allows for missiles to track vehicles during movement.
Strengths:
  • Speed of Propulsion: The electromagnetic propulsion system builds up power for the rocket's launch, and fires it at the top speed capable that still allows the missile to move for tracking down vehicles. Due to the speed, it's impact is quite large and has an extreme amount of stopping power.
  • Compact: The launcher is built in a way that fits where most clunky, large launchers wouldn't. It's still quite heavy.
  • Range: The launcher was built to be a threat to most types of vehicles/artillery, which could be stationed very far away on the battlefield. So, it has the capabilities of extremely long distance travel.
Weaknesses:
  • Rate of Fire: The launcher only takes one rocket a time, and it can take around 2 minutes for an average reload.
  • Ion/EMP Vulnerability: The electromagnetic propulsion system can be damaged/temporarily deactivated through the use of an EMP/Ion device.
  • Retreat Range: The missile's tracking system's proficiency drops off slowly the farther it travels. So, if you get far enough you could make the missile miss your vehicle.
  • Targeting: The launcher must be locked on to a vehicle to fire. This means it cannot be used against non-vehicles.
DESCRIPTION
The J-I Vehicular Guided Rocket Launcher's main function is to take out enemy/hostile vehicles such as tanks, speeders, and artillery on the battlefield. It was made to have a heavy impact, and to be compact for transportation. However, it was still made very heavy and has a slow rate of fire due to it's capacity of only one rocket. The launcher is useless against non-vehicles, and must be locked on to fire.

The electromagnetic propulsion system makes the rocket's launches even more of a threat due to the speed it provides the rocket. With weak enough armor, the speed of which the rocket goes is enough to even pierce some vehicles and detonate inside them. These rocket launchers were made for the Jen'ari Imperial Military for use against enemy vehicles and transportation.
