Description
Based on the popular PLX line of missile launchers, the PLX-3 is designed to be used with more deliberation in target acquisition and destruction. It hosts a wider range of warheads than the Plasma Propelled Rocket Launcher, and is capable of engaging at a longer range. It has twice the range, capable of hitting targets at up to 30km away under perfect conditions.
