MWS-B | UUM-2B Curveball GPS/EPN Guided Torpedo

Information

The UUM-2B "Curveball" is a mixed guidance medium ranged fire and forget anti-submarine/vessel torpedo designed to be launched from both air, sea & underwater environments with ease. It uses both GPS & APN/EPN guidance to allow for highly accurate hits on targets ranging from submarines to vessels at a maximum range of 15km away, it requires no input once it has launched and is also capable of patrolling around a given waypoint if required.

It also doesn't need a waypoint to function correctly, if provided no waypoint it will constantly go straight-forwards until finding a potential target to hit. However, it functions best when given a waypoint, if it finds no target, it will patrol the waypoint until a target appears or it eventually runs out of battery, when finding a target, it will switch to its APN/EPN guidance and lead the target in a collision-course with it at a speed of 116kts. If it misses, the torpedo has an ability to turn around and re-engage providing another chance to hit.

DIMENSIONS: 20x3x4 (Blocks)

MINIMUM ENGAGEMENT RANGE: 1.5KM
