1. A multi-purpose missile launcher module capable of being transported within a modular bed of a military land vehicle comprising: a base structure configured to operably and detachably mate with the modular bed of the military land vehicle; a first multiple missile system operably attached to the base structure and selectively positionable in both vertical and horizontal orientations and selectively movable to multiple heights relative to the base structure for direct targeting of the first multiple missile system against short and medium range land targets; and a second multiple missile system operably attached to the base structure in a fixed and generally vertical orientation for indirect targeting against long range land targets or against air targets. 2. The multi-purpose missile launcher of claim 1, wherein the first multiple missile system comprises: a base pivotally mounted to the base structure; a missile array that includes at least one missile; and a mounting mechanism that rotatably and pivotally attaches the missile array to the base. 3. The multi-purpose missile launcher of claim 1, wherein the first multiple missile system comprises first launching module and a second launching module, and wherein the first launching module and the second launching module each comprises: a base that is pivotally mounted to the base structure; a missile array that includes at least one missile; and a mounting mechanism that rotatably and pivotally attaches the missile array to the base. 4. The multi-purpose missile launcher of claim 1, wherein the first multiple missile system is movable between a retracted position and an extended position. 5. The multi-purpose missile launcher of claim 1, wherein the first multiple missile system is movable between a retracted position and a reload position. 6. The multi-purpose missile launcher of claim 1, wherein the second multiple missile system is removably attachable to the base structure. 7. The multi-purpose missile launcher of claim 1, wherein the second multiple missile system includes a plurality of missile modules removably mounted therein, and wherein each of the missile modules is capable of holding one missile.
