Hey Rick, good to see ya came back for a second helping of GR.

Canuckian, if you can motivate BR away from laziness, you are a much finer officer than i gave you credit for.

"Looked closer at Kidd, found out that it have only two SPG-55D target illuminators.

Means it can attack only 2 targets at once.""

As rick pointed out, it's three illuminators.

Rick, you sure the NTU needs constant illumination? I was under the impression it only needs the 4 second terminal illumination as CapnC stated.

I'll haveta look into the SM-2MR Block IIIA, cause that is probably the deciding factor. I didn't think the IIIA was still a beam rider like the older blocks were. I think it's command guidance, meaning it needs only the last 4 seconds of illumination, flying on autopilot until terminal.
