"Have no fear! For the Rocketeer is here!"

-UCA Rocketeer flying out of the Barracks

The Rocketeer is a flying assault infantry unit of the UCA rose battalion, specializing in anti-ground bombardment. Planned to be voiced by Todd Haberkorn (captain), David Wald, and Brittney Karbowski.

Tactical analysis

 * Wolf of steel: Rocketeers are among the flying infantry of the UCA, and the pride of Rose battalion, raining down powerful shells from their recoilless rifle gauntlets onto enemy formations. The titular rocket packs make for quick and agile flight, which along with their gauntlets allow Rocketeers to bring down aircraft by flying directly to it and punch it


 * Rocket punch!: Rocketeers can take off or land as necessary to avoid enemy defences. And on the ground, Rocketeers augment their close quarters combat training with micro-rocket propelled fists - far more than a match for most foes, and if they prove to be tougher they can briefly overclock their jetpack, whether on ground or flying to deliver a greater punch, outright divebombing a tank if ordered, but note that the impact will deplete any forcefield they had
 * Still a person in a jetpack: However it should still be remembered that the Rocketeer are still infantry, and despite their forcefield should still avoid heavy anti-infantry weapons, especially structures since their weapons will only dent structures at best. And when they die their rocket pack tends to explode, though many Rocketeers are known to fly directly towards their foes before they blow to deal one last blow


 * Rocket barrage: A handful of Rocketeers, mainly old veterans, are having their recoilless rifle gauntlets replaced with prototype micro-rocket rifles, the increased in rate of fire and magnetic tracking allowing them to now fire upon infantry and aircrafts with the same power as their old gauntlets, while the veterans themselves learns how to use the speed gained while overclocked, in tandem with their forcefield, to dodge and deflect oncoming projectiles and set their trajectory where their forcefield will only take half the brunt of the impact, while delivering the same impact towards their foes

Rank upgrades
Experienced:

Veteran:

Heroic: Unit now gains evade while moving, and evade is doubled when using rocket boost

Ace: Unit weapons is replaced, with their normal ground and air attack now ranged and hit in an aoe and a rate of fire increase

Trivia

 * This unit is based off the rocketeer from pacific comics and film of the same name, and to some extent ironman, and the unit of the same name from red alert paradox, and to some extant the rocketeer in red alert 2 and mental omega
