ComputerCraft
Missile launchers (both cruise and conventional) can be controlled with a ComputerCraft computer. Functions avaliable are:
launch() - Launchs the missile to the target.
getTarget() - Returns a table with the 3 value of the coord.
setTarget(x, y, z) - Sets the target to the specific coord.
setFrequency(frequency) - Sets the frequency of the launcher of it if it is tier three.
getFrequency() - Gets the frequency of the launcher.
Radars will also be able to return detected missile coords and such as long as it is powered by electricity.
getMissiles() - Gets all detected missiles from this radar station and returns a table with the coordinates for each of them. Table orders in x, y, z per missile.
getRadars() - Gets all detected radars from this radar station and return a table with the coordinates for each of them. Table orders in x, y, z per radar.
ICBM peripherals need to be controlled in a specific way. You have to first place a computer next to an ICBM peripheral. Then type in the command:
p = peripheral.wrap("left")
Would like to know how to use these above commands in computer craft so i can make a program to launch missles.

Please explain what you are trying to do, which mods you're using and don't just copy/paste the CC integration instructions from the ICBM page.
Place a computer next to a launcher, edit a new program and type in some code similar to this:
launcher = peripheral.warp("right") --replace with the side of the computer attached to the launcher
launcher.setTarget(100, 70, -30) --replace with target coordinates
launcher.launch()
launcher ist just a variable, you can also do that with radars, just wrap them the same way as launchers.

launch() doesn't need any parameters, remove the 0.

That's the problem, CC Integration has been added to ICBM in v0.5.7.
Just a general tip: Stop using tekkit, there are loads of new CC features in the current versions and 1.33 is rarely supported.

Sorry I haven't been able to reply for a while have been studying and I hate the tutor that would of been teaching me today if I went.
Anyway thanks for all the help I got the above commands going on Minecraft.
I love both Tekkit and Minecraft I played Technic but thought that was just crazy weird as birds and beast walking around.
Lastly thanks to everyone who helped out and the nice and friendly mods.
The guys over at Forge could learn from use I had a post there and because I didn't get back to it within a day they locked my post down on me.
Figured it all out in the end I'm guessing it wasn't all my fault as the server sending the files needed through FML was down and I'd load the game and get a black screen.
The one last thing I'd like to know is can you keep re-enriching uranium if you build a birth- er reactor.

I don think so, Atomic Science is currently in an alpha stage, but Calclavia is adding a new type of reactor this week (Plasma!)
