It only fires 5 rockets. Did it fire 10 rockets when it first released? Anyone know the history?
dunno but you could say the same with the hurricane to. it has 8 tubes but only fires 4 rockets, 2 per 4 cluster or 2 per side.
My guess is to prevent insane reload times. If you shot all at once, the reload time would double.
plese ignore the user Loren075Keyser thats just a bot account and i reported it. dont click the link they provide either.
Making five tubes into a cube shape and keeping them compact would be hard
Also, hitting five rockets in a row is hard enough, ten would just be a waste of ammo.
I wonder if the cricket would be changed to a mag system? Like, you have ten rockets that can be fired whenever, and after those ten it takes a long time to reload?
It’s always been 5 shots, no idea why it has 10 tubes. Looks pretty though!
I like the idea of mags but ONLY if they introduce a friggin reload button!
i think i might know.
aesthetics, but also function.
imagine trying to come up with a rocket launcher that has only 5 tubes, it wouldnt come out looking well so they add 10 and make it into a box shape cause it looks better. i also think that they didnt want this weapon being to accurate so they made the rockets launch from different tubes to vary the accuracy as well. dont forget you have the hurricane that has 8 tubes as well but only fires 4 rockets, 2 per side. not sure why this is but seeing how powerful they are im guessing they didnt want to much rocket spam on screen.
edit: i think they wanted the weapon similar to this, its called a Hwacha and i think thats where the inspiration took place.
