About this Mod
Air Tactical Arsenal
A Forge 1.20.1 mod that brings tactical strike systems into Minecraft: kamikaze drones, ballistic missiles, recon UAVs, an air defense radar, and alert sirens. Made for the KrutEvent server.
Strike systems
Shahed-136
Kamikaze UAV. Launch from a mobile platform via a control terminal. Two attack profiles — low dive and high dive — let you adapt to terrain and target.
Iskander-M
Ballistic missile. Requires a 5×5 launch pad with open sky. After a 7-second prep countdown, the rocket arcs high above the world and dives onto your selected coordinates.
Orlan-10
Recon drone with its own FPV camera and night vision shader. Plan routes from the control tablet and watch the battlefield from above.
Control & detection
- Shahed Control Terminal — input X/Z coordinates, see cost, fire
- Iskander Control Terminal — unified launcher manager, supports several pads, shows ETA and pad status
- Air Defense Radar — tactical map with zoom, pan, and target markers
- Launch Interface Cable — links a launcher to its terminal (up to 60 blocks)
