Experimental MIRV Launcher
A shotgun is a devastating close-range weapon that unleashes a wall of lead at whatever foe is unlucky enough to be on the wrong side of the gun. A nuclear missile is a catastrophic weapon of mass destruction meant for long-range use. Fallout 3 poses the profound question: What if we combined the two?
All this build-up, but what can this baby do? The MIRV looks like an ordinary Fat Man, but instead of firing a single nuke, it launches eight. Yes, you read that correctly – eight nukes. The force of this weapon is so great, that if you accidentally aim it anywhere near the ground, upon detonation it promises to send you high into orbit – or as high as the game”s skybox allows, which is roughly the size of Tenpenny Tower.
Fun Fact: MIRV is a military term for Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicle. It’s a collection of nuclear weapons carried on a single intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). It’s meant to strike several targets, or few targets multiple times and was developed in the 20th Century as a weapon system mean to take out an enemy country in a single missile attack before the opposing nation could respond.
