The Cleaver is an air-to-ground missile with a range of 10 miles. This makes it the longest range air-to-ground weapon currently in the game. It deals extremely high damage, as it can sink an A.I destroyer with only a single missile. Be careful though, as it's very large and weighs over 2,000 pounds, restricting use to only sturdy vehicles.

The design of the missile has many similarities with the real world Tomahawk Cruise Missile, a subsonic surface to surface missile used by the navies of the United States and the United Kingdom.

The Kongo -class cruisers were built for one purpose, and one purpose only—the complete and utter annihilation of any carrier battle group they might come across. True and straightforward to that role, the Kongo -class vessels featured armanents heavier than any other surface vessel within her displacement range, being quite literally built around her main battery of sixteen brand-new Type 70 ship-attack cruise missiles, each capable of bringing a 905kg payload towards any place within a 550km radius. Despite that, however, the ship also features a much more powerful powerplant capable of generating significantly more power than most other cruisers, as well, enabling her a top speed of 37 knots, more than enough to keep up with a carrier battle group as escorts or to hunt down enemy carriers. To further add to this, the class posesses the longest radar visibility of any other ship class within Japanese service, at a whopping 3,700km compared to the 1,700km range of the Type 60 air/surface-search radar installed on older vessels. The closest Japan had to such a class operating within the Imperial Naval Arm or the Imperial Japanese Navy was the older, historical Kongo -class battlecruisers, and as such, ships of the class follow in the IJN's naming convention of being named after mountains, with the first four ships being named in tribute of the four ships within the Kongo -class battlecruisers, respectively.

Twenty vessels have been ordered by Dresia to operate under the subclass name of Göherna-Trëfal with deliveries sceduled for the spring of 1980. Swann has also ordered twelve vessels with deliveries sceduled for the same date.

    Thanks to the introduction of the ammo function in the new 1.9.202 Beta, we could be finally able to recreate effects or mechanisms that activate when a specific weapon is fired / launched.

    This is work in progess. The missile is capable of holding course and altitude by thrust vectoring the two engines. There are no control surfaces. I carries a single modified bomb that detonates when the aircraft crashes into something. The idea is to spawn this missile, deactivated on ground.

    I've also limited the SLBM minRange to default because firing that thing close will destroy the submarine too. This thing is quite fast for a submarine. I set the maximum diving range just a few foot because I don't want to make the missile obliterated when diving too deep. Don't worry, hostiles wont lock on you when you fully dive.

    Spotting the enemy should be the real challenge in missile combat. This would prevent it from being the "symmetrical" system that it is right now, since the planes can actually behave different. Maybe, a radar could even be introduced, where building the plane actually requires a trade-off between enemy detection and weight/manoeuvrability.
