Description:

Improvements to the RGM/UGM-109B (TASM) and RGM/UGM-109C (TLAM) "Tomahawk" cruise missiles.

1) TASMs will not activate until 8 miles before their intended target, will have a much narrower homing cone, and will have a much shorter homing range. These changes should prevent TASMs from striking unintended targets. Targets clumped tightly within the same task force may still cause unintended hits, but the re-target rate should be greatly reduced.

2) TASMs will now skim over terrain, and will perform a short pop-up maneuver prior to striking the target. I don’t know if this is realistic for the Block II TASMs, but it does greatly enhance their lethality and usability, and is a much-needed QOL change.

3) TLAMs now have a greater chance to kill targets in one strike. They have a greater explosion area, and will also perform a small pop-up to get over terrain, and strike with a more vertical attitude. Again, I don’t know if this realistic for the Block IIs, but it makes life a LOT easier.

This mod should be compatible with other mods, so long as it’s loaded AFTER the other mod.
