Description
The Dragonfly ATGM utilizes the new Laser Sensor (Missile) to accurately lead targets and destroy them in the first shot. While it's range is limited, it's guidance is pristine. Because the sensor is relatively new, I'm still experimenting with the best way of implementing, controlling, and stabilizing it, so expect future improvements on the design.

This missile features:

- Laser guidance (Vis or IR)
- 1500m range
- 140m/s velocity
- SACLOS / Mouse-aimed controls
- Small warhead for a devastating blow
- Leads target based on tracking movement
- Can hit vehicles, stationary targets, or players with splash damage (no need for a radar-able target)

Hope you like it. Please let me know if you have any trouble with it and I'll try to fix any issues ASAP. It does struggle in wind a little bit and the laser NEEDS to be reflecting off a surface (terrain or vehicle).

P.s., This vehicle uses no XML modifications and therefore won't have any trouble integrating into vehicles you've made

Not SACLOS. This is SALH - semi-active laser homing.

SACLOS ("Semi-active command to line of sight") would be achieved by tracking the missile with a sensor on the launcher and trying to aim the missile into the center of that sensor.

SALH ("Semi-active laser homing") is achieved when the missile has its own seeker that tracks a laser spot. This is what we have in this missile, and what most others have too.
