Description
VLS for Stellaris

This mod is inspired by Ship Decorative Equipment.
All projectile trajectories were created by 6thStrikeUnit, auther of that mod.

You can also use VLS ironman mod for more compatibility.




On modern naval ships, the VLS - vertical launch system - is a common sense. But in the Stellaris universe of the 23rd century, all ships use a missile system that fires directly from a rotating turret. This mod was created to solve this problem.



This mod removes the missile/swarmer missile's turret, and changes the graphic effect so that the projectiles are fired vertically from the ship and then track the enemy ship.
As of 3.6 'Orion', torpedoes have been changed to short-range weapons, so their projectiles maintain a straight flight path.

This mod is compatible with all shipset mods.
This mod supports and is compatible with BSB, CSS, NSC, ESC NEXT, Gigastructure, and so on.


Please enjoy and give me good feedbacks!

there is real world version of swarmer missiles, the british Starstreak as well as mirv warhead, but those both are semi swarm where they fire as a single missile and split closer to the target

@QualityPen On the whole I agree with you. Although, there several technologies that are kinda like swarming missiles. The payload of many nuclear systems (ICBMS) have multiple warheads meaning that the last stage of flight has several equal payloads flying at the target. While the initial launch is a single missile, the enemy is indeed faced with a barrage of missiles.

Most modern swarming of missiles is usually conducted using a combination of systems. A few days a go a Storm Shadow hit a Russian ammo depot. However, it has been launched in combination with other more visible missiles as to detract the attention of missile defense systems. So the enemy does see a swarm of missiles and has to react to that.

@DmitriyAgra As far as I know, there is no such thing as modern swarming missiles, of any sort. There are multiple launch rocket systems and there are turreted close-in point defense missiles like Sea Sparrow, but neither of these are anything like the swarm missiles in this game.

It's easier to make a missile stealthier or faster to penetrate air defenses than it is to make a swarm of small missiles with the same range and performance of a larger missile. America uses the semi-stealthy Long Range Anti Ship Missile (LRASM) and Russia uses the hypersonic Zircon. Nobody uses swarm missiles.

Modern analogue of swarming missiles uses turrets...

@Ze_Young_Kestrel @paulo
I updated the mod. Thank for your concern.

@LiquidThicc
No. If you mind, please use the ironman version.
