Probably be hard as hell to make it but I'd love to see an MLRS using those ATACMS rrounds with the BAT submunitions.

Should take some time to code it but it s possible, but the m74 (block I) version. will cause lag ingame.

Depending on the size of the rockets or which nation is using them a variety of warheads can be used. Some scatter mines, others use gravity AP/AT submunitions, then there's the FAE warheads or there are guided bomblets that use acoustics and/or infrared signatures to acquire targets.

Wait can you make that bomb where the bomblets home in on a tanks engine?

I really hope the MLRS makes it in-game, it is one of my favorite Military vehicles.

Not sure if the Russians have even built the rocket/UAV yet, but supposedly their Smerch MLRS can/will be able to fire a UAV from it's regular lauch tubes. Not too sure how I feel about an arty unit being able to spot targets and fire upon them with no outside assistance.

heat seeking bomblets??? Rofl, not without a guidance system on the bomblets, you really can't.
However you can make a bomb with bomblets in it as far as scripting goes. It would be a little time consuming, but not all that bad, and they would eventually have to time out and disappear. I have a dud bomblet here, if anyone wants pictures to texture a sphere to.
