P-123 Taurus Fast Attack Missile Boat
DESCRIPTIONThe P-123 "Taurus" is a Fast Attack Missile Boat designed to address the shortfalls of both the P-118 "Templar" & P-119 "Tresco" in terms of firepower, speed & age. Both the P-118 & P-119 had come to a point of desperately needing a replacement, especially after the introduction to much newer JTAC-ADV equipped vessels, allowing for modularity & concentrated firepower. Hence the P-123 was developed, using JTAC-ADV to its maximum and allowing for the whole vessel’s weaponry to be controlled at a single point, furthermore speed was improved, allowing a maximum speed of 55kts (sprint mode), and firepower was drastically increased helping the P-123 sustain combat.
The P-123 comes with the following armament at its disposal, all of which guided by JTAC-ADV:
– 4x UUM-3B Slingshot II Heavyweight Torpedoes
– 4x RIM-8A High Agility Semi-Active Anti-Air Missiles
– 2x L30M Autocannons
– 1x L120M Mod. 3 Cannon
– 1x L75M Mod. 3 Autocannon
HOW TO USE: (PLEASE READ BEFORE COMMENTING)– Please note that all weapons on this ship are guided by JTAC-ADV, you do NOT need to input a waypoint for the torpedoes as long as you’re looking at a target, the missiles are also semi-active which means you need to be pointing at a target & highlighting it with JTAC-ADV.
– If you want to fire the torpedoes at a waypoint, press UUM-3A KEYPAD GPS SEND and put in a waypoint.

To guide the weapons with radar (Make sure the fire control radar is aimed at a target):
– Press ACTIVATE SYSTEM
– Press TGT
– Press your desired weapon to arm.
– Fire using your trigger button (Default = Spacebar, RIM-8 & UUM-3 use physical buttons to fire)
————————————————————————————————BUTTON DEFINITIONS:– MANUAL CONTROL: This will let you take control of where the fire control radar points at.
– TGT: Abbreviated for "target", this will point all the guns at the radar/laser target you are looking at. It will also transmit GPS coordinates of that target via radio.
– LAS: Abbreviated for "laser", this will turn on the laser and send laser gps co-rdinates and allow you to point the guns where the camera is facing.
– RECIEVE JTAC COORDINATES: The turrets will point at received JTAC coordinates. This requires another transmitter to be actively transmitting coordinates on the same frequency to work.
