Got anything stating it has datalink?

Many things actually (: Taurus uses a Israeli 2 way data link
Is there anything that I can read from? I’m seeing some conflicting things in that the datalink was to be added for customers if they wanted it, but that Taurus Neo (future variant) is what adds datalink to it.
That’s talking about Taurus neo… The next gen Taurus look for KEPD 350.
But in all honesty in game I don’t think it would get it the information is incredibly limited not even the range is properly stated.
I also don’t think we’ll get Taurus ever
The language implies that the Neo “adds” datalink over the original Taurus so to speak.
Range of for a lot of missiles isn’t properly stated tbf.
I can see it coming this year since Bvvd’s blogpost today talks about having JSOW given its stealth attributes.
Yea but that’s comparing something with limited range and stealth to like 6X the range and invisible to basically every radar wise
The range doesn’t really matter given the maps we have and how we release them currently, and what’s the difference between the two in terms of signature/RCS?
Tbh that’s apart I couldn’t tell you off the top of my head but I’ve seen the claim alot for s400s not being able to detect taraus
watch it be on those 2 german 4.0 Missile attack crafts only

I can see them adding SCALP/Storm Shadow and Taurus as GNSS Guided only missiles for balance reasons
although Taurus is technicalls GNSS + IOG + IR Terminal Homing
if we see them tho then I guarantee GROM-1 will return too
How fast do all of them go?
Taurus, Storm Shadow/SCALP are variable regarding their speed but should be able to go up to Mach 0,95 (dive) and Mach 0,8 at usual cruise flight but could also go slower AFAIK.

Taurus also flies very low IIRC, which could be interesting to make it harder to target.
If gaijin gets their “terrain following” functionality to work properly (last time I checked, my AGM-84 flew so low/recovered from its dive so late it crashed into the trees).
subsonic which is why imo they could be balanced

Yes, since they are subsonic, IOG+GNSS+IR Terminal sounds balanced to me
Cannot wait for SCALP/Storm shadow, Taurus and AGM-158ER/XR :D
Its the same for Scalp. GNSS + radio wave cruise, and GNSS + IOG + IR terminal homing (ejecting the cap to show the seeker), using the same software as the AASM basically
That’s because they don’t look forward, only at their exact current altitude changes. They would need to complleltely rework terrain following.

Wouldn’t the simplest solution be limiting it to 1 missile max. and ballooning the SP cost of the maximum amount of such missiles to be 3x what it is for 1? Sounds absurd/very high, but we’re talking about something similar to Kh-31 with a nuke warhead lol
Idk, just spitballing.
