They might also just add an A2N mode and no A2G mode for the radar.

Will be good on British ships first :P

The air to surface mode itself detects both sea and ground targets luckily, so no need for a separate mode.

As is the same on other aircraft, like the Typhoon, but instead they model it as 2 different modes, (though only the A2G mode actually made it to the live game)

Some new things confirmed by BVV_d that could be added:

Spoiler

RCS modelling for munitions planned for this year.

NE potentially permanently in the game autumn.

Vietnam era test for NE planned for the summer.

CNS Fujian, USS Nimitz, and more modern aircraft carriers planned for this year.

Exocet planned for next major update.

Repairing and capturing airfield mechanic planned for NE, no timeframe for it.

RBS-15 planned, no timeframe but likely for next major update.

Trolling aside, i guess they’ll get it when ships have missiles equipped
Funnily enough the french tree does not get its own naval Exocet slinger, so your prediction might become true X)

Yep, Leander-Class Frigates, Type 21/22 Frigates and County-Class Batch 2 Destroyers were equipped with them. Type 42s (the class that HMS Sheffield was, were equipped with them by Argentina who operated 2x Type 42s)

We actually had quite a good idea of how they functioned before/just after the Falklands started though:

Harrier 809

Yep, guessing a Seaslug slinger first though.

But just remember, I was joking about the premium aircraft being an F-16 too :P

Are you talking in game ?
Cause IRL, the George Leygues used the MM38, and some later used the MM40

As for the other MM40 users you have :
FREMM/FDA
FDI
La fayette

Gib Taurus:
GPS/IOG/RADALT/MITL/IR and is a Tandem SAP :3
Would have a VERY Funny Pen Value too :D

Is it actually MITL?

Kinda, it has DL + we have a Video of the Bundeswehr were they say if the Taurus goes Off its Programmed Course they can take action and make an controled Crash Manually, it depends how Gaijin feels on that day

Got anything stating it has datalink?

yup

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
