This ticket is for the Air-Launched Arrow IV missiles described in TacOps pg 359.
Rules citation [Homing Air-Launched Arrow IV] :
"These are dropped as bombs, not fired as artillery and so they do not use the Airborne Targeting rules (see p. 180). Air-launched Arrow
IV Homing Missiles occupy 5 bomb slots per missile and function in the same manner as their standard launcher-based version (see p. 355), with the
following modifications:
• Air-launched Arrow IV Homing Missiles may not be used to attack other airborne aerospace units or any target in space.
• Air-launched Arrow IV Homing Missiles may not be fired by units at an Altitude of 3 or lower on the Low-Altitude Map.
• Unlike ground-based Arrow launchers, an aerospace unit may not TAG and fire its Arrow IV Homing Missile at the same time. However, a fighter
using air-launched Arrow IV Homing Missiles can release these missiles in a turn prior to the missiles’ arrival "
The rules for non-homing missiles are on the same page but work with the same restrictions (can't fire below Altitude 3)
