What’s the penetration on the Martlet?
It’s quite new and I’m certainly not an expert of working out penetration values.

We need them as a 2nd/optional missile on the HVM Stormer.

Yeah, seems to be around 500-600mm which is totally workable. I was primarily concerned that it’d be like 200mm or something which would cause a huge balancing issue.
I mean the Starstreak HVM on the Apache’s can kill tanks
yep, it might also have IR guidance if a source can be found for that
I provided it in one of the images. States it can be laser, semi-laser or IR

oh nice, where is the source from?
yep, and given the issues around MMW its britains only hope short term
Ye the IR guidance was part of the potential balancing issue. 20 FnF missiles with decent penetration? Balanced at a highish tier. 20 FnF with very little penetration? That becomes an issue to place.
Yes Gaijib I know this is similar to what I just posted I replied to the wrong post

and my reply to you above just to confusing
That was is from like Kyiv Defence or something I can’t remember but u can also find it here.
The LMM’s IR guidance is used in mode B of its guidance system. The LMM’s dual-mode seeker combines laser and IR guidance to engage fast-moving and difficult-to-hit targets. The LMM’s dual-mode seeker ensures high precision even in complex operational environments.
Other LMM guidance modes: Semi-active laser (SAL), Laser beam riding (LBR), Imaging infrared (IIR) terminal homing, Inertial navigation system (INS), and GPS (global positioning system).
The Martlet (LMM) missile uses infrared (IR) terminal homing as one of its guidance modes. The LMM is a lightweight, multi-role missile that can be used for precision strikes against aircraft, helicopters, and drones. It has a dual-mode seeker that combines laser and IR guidance
Oh dayum that’s cool. Didn’t even know.
I will be honest, that looks like it is taken straight up from Wikipedia, and that one was on it for years.
Question, FnF or LoAL? If the IR is LoAL then they’d’ve to be Brimstoned.
