30.0k Dumpworks  7.2 years ago

Project Pluto was a project to create a nuclear-powered ramjet to power the SLAM missile, SLAM for Supersonic Low Altitude Missile, for launch it could be launched from a mobile platform(like on this specialized railcar) launch would start with the activation of 3 rocket engines to not irradiate friendly territory, but over enemy territory the main engine starts, effectively using it's bombs and it's engine as a weapon, as the name suggests this missile would curise around Mach 3 at treetop level, allowing it to avoid the Soviet Anti-Aircraft radar, to drop it's ordinance it would fling nuclear bombs out the top, the SLAM missile was never built as nuclear powered thrust lost popularity INSTRUCTIONS: VTOL up full, full throttle wait for like 10 seconds then hit activator 1, activator 2 to detach rocket engines, activators 3,4,5,6,7 to drop bombs

    okay launching this is kinda difficult due to the detachers and rotators bending and flexing becuase it's really heavy, follow the instructions and you should take-off fine, aslo due to the limitations of the amount of activator groups it only has 10 out of the 17 bombs it's supposed to have
