In addition, on each kill using the weapon, its clip size is increased by one, up to 8 rockets after 4 kills. The reduced delay between shots applies whenever a rocket is fired while already rocket jumping; therefore the rocket used to rocket jump in the first place does not have the speed bonus, but conversely firing a rocket mid-rocket jump and then landing still has the shorter delay before firing again, even though the next rocket does not have a splash damage penalty since the player is no longer rocket jumping. |

“ | I am the perfect avian killing machine!
Click to listen
— The Soldier on air-to-land missiles
|
” |
The Air Strike is a community-created primary weapon for the Soldier. It is a green atom bomb-shaped rocket launcher with a white checkered pattern near the front and tannish wooden handles. It fires a green and white missile with fins on the front and back of the projectile.
The projectiles fired by this weapon deal 15% less damage (both to enemies and the Soldier when rocket jumping) and have a 10% smaller explosion radius. While rocket jumping, the time between attacks is reduced by 65% (185% increase in attack speed), explosion radius is further reduced by 20% (which is 28% smaller compared to a standard rocket's splash radius), and the rockets fired produce white contrails. In addition, on each kill using the weapon, its clip size is increased by one, up to 8 rockets after 4 kills. The reduced delay between shots applies whenever a rocket is fired while already rocket jumping; therefore the rocket used to rocket jump in the first place does not have the speed bonus, but conversely firing a rocket mid-rocket jump and then landing still has the shorter delay before firing again, even though the next rocket does not have a splash damage penalty since the player is no longer rocket jumping.
The reduced damage and blast radius does not affect the push forces from rocket jumping when compared to the Rocket Launcher.
As an added advantage, if the player kills an enemy Demoman wielding the Eyelander or its reskins, another Soldier wielding the Air Strike, a Sniper wielding the Bazaar Bargain, or a Medic wielding the Vita-Saw, the player receives an amount of kills relative to the kills or organs stored by the enemy player.
The Air Strike was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
