Missiles are more effective against structures than GDI standard Rifles.
- GDI Officer

The Missile Squad is employed by GDI against enemy armour and structures. These two man teams are armed with FGM-90 shoulder mounted missile launchers that can be employed against armour, structures and aircraft thanks to the weapon's limited tracking ability.

The Missile Squad's soldiers wear standard GDI combat armor, which can be upgraded to composite armor suits or Tiberium field suits. Their helmets are modified with optical sights that allow them to aim the rocket launcher with precision. As with all GDI infantry, they can be shuttled throughout the battlefield in V-35 Ox aircraft. Some infantry squads are also members of elite GDI Airborne divisions.

As a note, soldiers tend to exercise with their missile launchers. Care must be taken that the launchers have their safeties on when exercising, usually doing body and waist stretches. Like all Rocket Soldiers they can't move and fire at the same time.
