You can technically steer missles but we don't really suggest it.

Status: offline 		I was also wondering about fixing CAP or helo search sectors based upon HVU/CVN location, regardless off of

i.e., CAP/DCA stations based upon vector logic/bearing-range from CVN? of SH-60F or SH-60B/MH-60R searching 000T-090T 20,000-60,000 yards in front of formation/HVU?

Status: offline 		You can do that now if I understand your question correctly.

You can already set reference points relative to the position of a ship or a unit in the group so that it moves along with it Take a look at the set reference point relative to sections in the manual. You can set it to a fixed bearing or rotating bearing.
