Wonderful. Looks a lot fatter than the Block 1 but I love the SM-2/3/6 like layout they have adopted for the missile. It shouldn't be a problem for them to stack a booster under it and increase its range to 250 km or perhaps even higher.

If they can add a booster, and put a Pif-Paf type DACS on this missile, it could be a very strong competitor to the PAC-3.

It can be a good substitute for the SM-6 on TN ships. Make it dual-packable inside the MIDLAS VLS and the I-Class will outclass the Greek FREMMs in terms of both range and magazine size for AAW.

This thing is a pretty big deal.

To my knowledge, putting PIF-PAF on a missile is not that easy. It is not a thing that can be added on, it needs to be designed with it from the get-go. Is it also not too big to be a PAC-3 MSE competitor?
