Missile (Fallout 3)

The Missile is a Big Guns ammunition found in the game. It is only used with the Missile Launcher and its unique variants. With the Scrounger perk, you may find huge numbers of missiles in ammo boxes. (up to 16 missiles if you're lucky). One player has actually found an amazing 64 missiles in one Enclave container. This was most likely a bug, even though he did have Scrounger.

More Information on the Missile
The Missile Launcher is one of the rarest weapons in Fallout 3. It is believed that -- because it is a cheap and unfair weapon when enemies use it against you -- Bethesda decided not to spawn too many enemies with it. The majority of enemies equipped with missile launchers are Super Mutants, though there are rare occurrences when you will find a Wastelander using one.

Sometimes, you will find missiles randomly on different enemies, even ones that are not using a missile launcher. This especially happens for those with the Scrounger perk, as noted above.

Location of Missiles in the Wasteland

 * There are many places with small amounts of missiles but there are 4 places in particular where you will find larger quantities of missiles:
 * One is at Murder Pass. If you decide to take the harder path to get to Vault 87, there is at least one Super Mutant who is using a missile launcher that you can acquire at least one missile from.
 * You can go to Paradise Falls and if you kill everyone, a slaver has a few missiles on his corpse.
 * The second location of where you can find missiles are in the National Archives (read more on the side quest Stealing Independence to figure out how to get to the Archives). While clearing out the archives of enemies, certain security bots will fire missiles at you, and at killing of these robots and scavaging their bodies, you will find at least one missile on them.
 * And the third is at Fort Independence in the Hard locked room, there is some in the ammo crates next to the Miss Launcher.
 * There is a also a whole stack of them in the National Guard Depot armory, on a shelf next to a missile launcher.
 * Another location where missiles are available is behind the Washington Monument. First enter the main security gate at the outer wall. Do not enter the actual monument. Once in the small outdoor walkway to the monument jump through the broken part of the window/wall. Walk around behing the monument and there should be a missile launcher and some missiles leaning against the monument as well as some ammo crates with missiles in them. With the scrounger perk you could find more than 10 missiles here.
 * If you are looking into purchasing missiles, they can be bought at the front desk of Tenpenny Tower, Flak 'N Shrapnel's in the Rivet City marketplace and at Craterside Supply in Megaton.
