I have two big problems with the 'Blackcat.' One, making it an aerial munition screws us if we lose air superiority again. Two, there's so much gallows humor you could do with naming landmines, and you chose something as boring as Blackcat (a fireworks namebrand)? Christ, we're even using them against supposed pirates. 'Pegleg,' 'Eyepatch,' and 'Captain Hook,' would have been my go-tos.
I still like my Ribeye, but for the sake of being a team player, here's a different version of the 'Blackcat.'
UF-MRLS-46 Diana Mine Deploying MRLS RocketThe UF-MRLS-46 Diana is a mine deploying MRLS rocket deployed by our Artemis MRLS. If artillery is truely the King of Battle, surely that leaves room for a Princess. A heavily modified firecracker round fitted to an Artemis rocket, this Lady can scatter a variety of Forenian AP and AT mines at a distance. If possible, the AP mines should have non-metallic cases, to make them lighter, with wood being the obvious substitute if synthetics like rubber or Bakelite are unavailable. These AP mines should have "Treasure Inside" written on the outside of the case to further entice Cannalans to interact with them.Because Diana is just the Roman version of Artemis right?
I would have preferred my favorite airdropped AP landmine, the Russian PFM-1, (a ripoff of the otherwise unused NATO BLU-43) but that's probably too divergent tech-wise to stretch for a revision. If you ever see one though, they are oddly captivating and you just have to squeeze and play with it.
