Lyre Firearms: Hornet's Nest Launcherby ~UltimaWeapon13

Digital Art / Other / Other

Lyre Firearms presents, it's latest W.M.D, the HN-15 Rocket Launcher

Russian Brigadier general Liam Jackson came to Kyle one day, on a visit to a firearms expo, with the request of a powerful, lightweight, anti-armor cannon.
His first incarnation was a large explosive payload, which melted vehicles where they stood. However, this was both expensive and impractical. Instead, with Daniel's inspiration, he designed a rocket launcher that possessed fifteen small Vyxius-propelled rockets. These bombs exploded in an electric burst, frying anything in the radius, but dealing very little actual damage-leaving R&D teams thrilled.

The rockets can be fired all at once, or one at a time. Firing just one is simple. Pull the trigger, and a single rocket is launched. Pull again for another one, and continue until it is empty. Firing multiple ones is a bit different. First, you pull the trigger. But hold the trigger down instead of letting go. This will queue up more rockets to fire. A circular display will demonstrate how many rockets are readied. Let go, and all queued rockets will fire simultaneously. To reload, unscrew the cylinder mounted on the front, and screw in a new one.
Many Soldiers gave this Anti-Armour weapon high ratings, often referring to it as the "Hornet's Nest".

Chambered for: Vyxius "Hornet" Mini-rockets
Magazine size: 15-round rocket loaded cylinder.
Sighting: Integrated Iron Sights, Targeting Computer.
Maximum Range: 5,000 yards.
Manufacturer: Lyre Firearms.

As you know I love all of your work and you. I would use this gun if I needed to use one. It is very stylish yet any one with it would generally mean business. I do like rocket launchers very much. And I admire that you want your guns to make sense and all have a background story down to the bullets detail. Not many people do that. I can tell creating guns is not a game for you. I just hope you will be safe in whatever you chose to do. And that I can remain beside you. ^ - ^

Not bad, but it could be "fleshed out" a bit

~UltimaWeapon13 Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

How so?

~DerVulf Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Add vents, maybe a digital ammunition counter?

~UltimaWeapon13 Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Oh, right. I should probably add vents, but the computer is on the right-handed side of the weapon (mostly because I don't see why you'd need to have a left-handed model of rocket launcher). The reason it didn't have any venting or exhaust port in the first place, is that I had designed it originally for Lyre Firearms, as a multiple-rocket launcher, firing many kinds of explosives. But, then I remembers that Vyntraska had no anti-armor support. How could I leave my poor nation defenseless?

~DerVulf Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Dude, give this thing to Lyre firearms, make a shoulder-fire AT rifle for Vyntraska.

~UltimaWeapon13 Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

I like where you're going with this! It'll just take some fine tweaking.

~DerVulf Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Picture it, a repeating AT rifle, think of a LAthurn, just designed to be carried and shot from the shoulder.

~UltimaWeapon13 Dec 28, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

It would be so fearsome... I don't know what an LAthurn is, but here's the Hornet's Nest:
