    The width of a HIMARs munition alone is more than double the width of a shitknock, even before taking into consideration the launcher.

    Would it make multiple barrel rolls in air if all of those were launched at the same time?

      It would be split in half, and the pilots would be burnt to death before the crash.

      There isn't a lot of force imparted on rocket tubes, the back is usually open, like a recoilless rifle.

      IMO there's nothing stopping you from punting this out of a CH-47 or V-22 (especially) in cruise.

      >we're still using ancient bombers from the 1950s and our bomber fleet used up all of its airframe hours and we're too poor to replace them so we're just going to literally have someone push bombs out the back of a cargo plane like the third world african nation we're becoming

          The B-21 is a microcosm of the decline of America.

          anon, B52s are quite literally indestructible and there's parts for another century just lying around from post cold war demilitarization. It would be a waste.

        Unlike using a technical or some other thirdy, there's not really any difference between using a C-17 and a B-52 to sling standoff weapons.

        That's third world shit. America is proving that it's becoming a third world country.

        You're a moron, the B-52 has life on the upper wing skin to operate until 2050, that's why they're spending the dosh for the re-engine still.

          The B-52 and F-100 were introduced within six months of each other. Imagine if the air force was still planning to use Super Sabers until 2050 against 6+ generation aircraft.

    instead of putting missile tubes onto the helo

      Being fair, the Russian gyro guided missile launching isn't that inaccurate and GPS guiding on top would make them pretty good.
      It would be better being front launched, and you could give it the helicopters speed.

          So that’s what was hiding in all those shopping the Russians kept bombing. Sasuga Putin-sama, truly the tactical genius of our time.

      it would work, fund it, send it

      >would be heavy as shit and guzzle fuel like a b***h
      doesn't matter, but it will greatly increase the missile range as it won't have to climb up, wasting its own fuel
      >accuracy would be shit unless you use guided missiles or land it
      of course it will use the guided missiles, that's the point
      >either impossible to reload in the air or very difficult to do so with a limited ammo supply
      what aircraft can be reloaded in air?
      >probably expensive as shit
      it's a chinook with tubes
      >limited to use in air superiority conditions since it would probably be a massive *SHOOT ME DOWN* sign on radar
      it will have like 500 miles range and you can use it from the depths of your territory - you load it, climb up, shoot, land to reload, repeat
      >probably difficult as shit to fly widowmaker aircraft
      not any worse than a loaded chinook

        >500 miles
        Maybe with ATACMS
        I would estimate about 120km with the missiles in OP.
        Besides, flying high in a chopper is basically asking to get hit by some AA missile, so really it's just a hypermobile low flying HIMARs that can go back to base faster and reload safer.

    You don't need the standardized box, just the gmlrs rockets in a single tube.

    No, however making the Chinook a missile bus is a neat idea. Just imagine how many brimstones it could carry.

    I like it OP. Just one M240 launcher would do it too. Chinook should be able to easily carry it, and it'll have two more rockets then HIMARS, be even quicker in and out, fire from any direction and reload much more quickly. It would also enhance the range of the missiles quite significantly.

    they already do this with normal rocket pods

      Not really like a (G)MLRS platform. I reckon you can trade operational range (less fuel) and fit 8-12 M31 rockets. It would fly maybe at 800 feet max. Probably some challenges with strengthening the airframe but for one you don't need cargo space.

  13. 2 years ago

    Rocket exhaust would probably destroy the rotors on launch. I think you could physically mount the pods, but not have a stable launch platform.

    Not that exact design which looks like it took over 9000 hours in MS Paint, but heliborne MLRS does seems like a good idea.
