AIM-6 BACKFIRE (block 3)

Description
AIM-6 BACKFIRE (anti-air missile) is derivative of the Stormworks preset missile added into the game in version 1.3.14 and it adds a new AIR BURST mode for the missile. This makes the missile explode near the enemy in near miss situations, GREATLY enhancing missile's effectiveness and the probability of dealing damage to the enemy.

The preset missile can be replaced with the AIM-6 BACKFIRE on the launcher without the need for further modifications. Flight profile and physical dimensions are the same on both missiles. To increase hit probability with either of these missiles, aim slightly over the target and lead the target when aiming.

You can use the microcontroller that is on this missile for your own creations but please give me credit for it. :)

Block 3 update is now available which tweaks the air burst algorithm of the missile and its parameters. The proximity fuse works now better in different types of engagement situations.

I have updates the missile to block 2, which includes a new algorithm for triggering the proximity air burst. Please update the missile on to your creations for the update to take effect. The block 2 missile is much more effective on my tests.
