CBU-250 bombs on a x3 standard fighter pylon

The RY Rocket Family (Rocket Inyursta) is a series of standardized bombs in use by various military forces of Inyursta, its allies and various client states.

Overview

A series of simple rockets developed by PAVCO Arms and Seratto Defense, the RY family is the ongoing result of Inyurstan plans to replace and reduce reliance on foreign rocket sales. Since their introduction, wide diversification of the rocket family has taken place.

All rocket variants come in 82mm, 130mm and 240mm classes. The most common platforms for the RY family are helicopters, such as the AH-1Y Spitting Cobra and ..., but also jet aircraft such as the Amérifighter EF-20.
