Basic Information
The SAM Turret is a turret dedicated only to long-range missile defence. Firing Surface-To-Air Missiles, the turret can engage targets up to 300.0 Blocks away! However, be aware! The target must be 100.0 Blocks away to begin with.
This maximum range can however be further increased with Range upgrades.
Usage
On top of this, the missiles launched are homing missiles as long as the turret is connected to a Fire Control Radar. In order to connect such a radar please check out its wiki page.
When connected, the homing missiles have an increased chance of hitting their target. The turret can hold 10 rockets at a time and such a smart missile will outright destroy a target, but will only have a 50% chance to do so.
Do note however, that the Turret has a 5 second (100 tick) cooldown period between each missile fired. As such you should have several turrets to ensure your base is properly protected!
The turret requires 20 kW of electricity at 120 V. It has a maximum elevation of 90.0 degrees and a maximum depression of 45.0 degrees.
