Since it's buried in the ground it could be called a Depressed Bunker?

Very creative weapon system, me gusta. I don't mind the look of the missiles.

I don't think we want our SAM sites to be melancholic. #Tongue

Yep, but only to look better than my quickly done voxel projectile. I'd still like to keep the drone image. Though renaming it into SAD Bunker (Surface to Air Drones) would sound strange. #Tongue

AADS Bunker (Anti-Aircraft Drone System)
SAHD Bunker (Surface-to-Air Hunter Drone)

the word "drone" fits even less than "missile" IMO

I'd just call it an AA bunker and let the player decide what they think they are #Tongue

Battery Automated Targetable Missile Aircraft Neutraliser

Building looks cool, although more reminiscent of a missile silo

Aren't Surface to Air Missiles technically drones anyway? They operate without input once fired, so doesn't that qualify as a drone? They do have a highly complex navigation system in the nose cone.

It should be called: "What Aro Says It's Called Bunker"

I was actually serious when I posted. I like the idea of Nod having Atlantis-esque drones. It's so much more unconventional than missiles, which everybody and their freaking mother has.

I was serious when I posted too. Who actually cares? Is anybody going to call it anything else other than a SAM in-game? Name debates irritate me, especially when there is nothing wrong with the current name. It's a bunker, it fires Surface to Air Missiles. S.A.M. Bunker, right?
