Matra LR 361

34.9k WarHawk95  4.2 years ago

Matra Type 361

Honeycomb rocket launcher

For SNEB 37mm folding fins rockets

Features :

  • Realistic, 1/1 scale size and mass
    Weight : 68kgs
  • Capacity : 36 rockets
  • Historically accurate CoM, both when loaded and empty
  • Rate of fire : 1,800 rpm (/!\ Only when mounted by 2 !)
    Note : If you mount this rocket pod as single, the rate of fire will be twice the real RoF, and if you mount four pods, it will be 2x slower. You'll then have to modify... Ahem... Every single one of the 36 rockets to have the real rate of fire. So, if you have a plane you want to equip with more or less than two of these pods, just ask me.

Blueprint/data sheet used :

Provided with a small fuselage pylon, for example to attach it next to an attack helicopter (i.e. Alouette II, see below)

If you don't want the pylon, simply grab it by the detacher (in pink on this image) :

You'll then be able to mount it under the wings of a CAS plane (Ex: T-6G, T-28 "Fennec", AD-4 "Skyraider").


Now, some in-game pics :



(Aircraft used in these pictures : North American T-6G2, made by me ; the version already fitted with the rocket pods is available here)

Some real life pics :

Two LR361s in front of a French Air Force T-6G.

Two more LR361s fitted on an Alouette II light attack helicopter.

Three rocket pods mounted under the wing of a french CAS plane, maybe an AD-4 Skyraider.


Please leave an upvote or spotlight if you enjoyed, and don't hesitate to give some feedback !

P.S. : This is a quite "mobile-friendly" version, I didn't bother myself to fullfill all the space between the tubes to avoid having a huge part count. Tell me if you want a more "complete" version.
