Rocket - Inflatable Bunker
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much I miss my wife
It's lovely out in space
Oh such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
Elton John - Rocket Man
Now you don't have to be a space traveler or a glittery speckled singer and more to enjoy the power of the Rocket, as The Mighty Paintball Corporation produces a 10 foot model for use in airball paintball. Mighty's giant Rocket is a 10 foot superstar, all decked out in blue and yellow. The Mighty Rocket inflatable bunker is shaped like a long vertical cylinder with a cone shaped front those points towards the sky and three tail fins that hold up the apparatus.

The Rocket bunker is listed in their category of Scenario Bunkers, and these bunkers are not the shapes and models that you would usually see in speedball fields at series such as the Heartland Young Guns League and the Eastern xXx Extreme. Mighty is a unique manufacturer of bunkers that are often inserted into scenario games. Other scenario bunkers from Mighty include the Rock, Striped Snake, Torso, Tree, and Cannon.
The Cannon Bunker is shaped to resemble the type of portable cannons that you would see in the American Revolutionary War or the American Civil War. The Cannon is an imposing presence on any paintball field, ten feet long from the base at one end to the end of the barrel at the other end. The Cannon and the Tank are two favorites on airball fields with their imposing size and their fantastic artwork on the front and sides of them. The Rocket, Tank, and Cannon are all bunkers that would fit in for scenario paintball games and events. Though scenario games are often associated with natural fields and rustic environments, these un-landscaped lands do not have enough points of cover for some teams to play competitive games. To add a little extra support to these scenario fields, scenario bunkers like the Rocket, Tree, and Tank can often be inserted in. One notable 2007 scenario event with a military theme was 38th Parallel: The Korean Line in Old River Paintball.
From May 5th - May 6th, Old River Paintball hosted the scenario event 38th Parallel: The Korean Line. In this event, several key battles of the Korean War were re-enacted. One key battle in the historic war occurred at the 38th Parallel, where North Korean forces crossed the border to South Korea. With the sovereignty of the South Korean democracy in jeopardy, the American President Truman committed troops to the region that would be the start of a long war. The conclusion of the war resulted in American victory.
