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> | A '''Missile Silo''' is an underground vertical cylindrical container built for housing and launching missiles such as the [[11-B1 ICBM]].

*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. | *The missile silo was originally supposed to be a building that houses a missile launch bay in the game ''[[Halo Wars]]''.
