TL;DR

Expand the sounds of the rocket launch sequence with an in flight sound.

What ?

I had something like this in mind: https://youtu.be/c1wZVdFDhw8?t=120
(examplaratory a Soyuz launch). Track should be played fading away, originated from the moving rocket animation.

Why ?

As of 0.18.2 the sounds of the launch sequence had been improved significantly. In my opinion, they are ending a bit to abruptly once the rocket clears the silo. Therefore I suggest the above mentioned.
The rocket animation has quite a long duration and therefore effectively „launch corridor“. Therefore a particular useful scenario could be a player in the nearer vacinity of a silo, seeing the rocket animation in an unrelated part and now getting audio feedback of it.

Yeah play a loud noise over the whole map for 30 seconds. NOT

This wouldn’t be the whole map. By the time a base can launch a rocket, the sound would cover a rather insignificant portion of it.
