[[File:Standoffoverview.jpg|thumb|250px|A UNSC missile silo complex on [[Earth]]]]
The [[UNSC]] '''Missile silo''' is a building that houses a missile launch bay in the game [[Halo Wars]]. According to the Halo Wars preview, most UNSC bases have at least one, sometimes more. The warhead looks like it's either nuclear or a very large conventional one. It is likely that the missile is a "superweapon" for the UNSC, as "superweapons" are found in many RTS games.
A '''Missile Silo''' is an underground vertical cylindrical container built for housing and launching missiles such as the [[11-B1 ICBM]]. These silos are protected by large [[blast door]]s on top and are usually connected, either physically or electrically, to a missile launch control center. [[Kupiga Simu]] hosted several missile silos.<ref name="standoff">'''[[Halo 3]]''', multiplayer map ''[[Standoff]]''</ref>


It may be related to the [[11-B1 ICBM]], the launch silos that populate the landscape on the Halo 3 map [[Standoff]].Also with the apearance of the [[Halo Wars Demo]] on X-box Live and no missle silo being in sight it is very likely it was cut from the game like the UNSC Couger.
==Production notes==
*The missile silo was originally supposed to be a building that houses a missile launch bay in the game ''[[Halo Wars]]''. According to the Halo Wars preview, most UNSC bases have at least one, sometimes more. It is likely that the missile was intended to be a "superweapon" for the UNSC, as such weapons are found in many [[RTS]] games. However, it was cut from the final game.
*Launch silos of the 11-B1 ICBM populate the landscape on the ''[[Halo 3]]'' map [[Standoff]].{{Ref/Reuse|standoff}}
