'''Short-Range Missiles''', or '''SRMs''', operate as rockets, flying in a straight line without any guidance system, and are only effective out to a few hundred meters. In comparison to LRMs, SRMs are nearly direct-fire weapons. SRM launchers typically fire fewer missiles per volley than LRM launchers, but are moderately more powerful. SRMs also exist in '''Dual''' variants, which fire twice as many missiles per shot as a '''single''' launcher. | '''Short-Range Missiles''', or '''SRMs''', operate as rockets, flying in a straight line without any guidance system, and are only effective out to a few hundred meters.

Gameplay & Hints
Short range missiles, as well as their SSRM cousins, are high damage-per-second weapons that are easiely mountable in large numbers. Their high rate of fire combined with the severe cockpit shake inflicted upon enemy units makes them well suited to fight assets with high burst potential.
Their main disadvantages are ammo shortages and the very short range.
Usage
The following vehicles equip these weapons.
