Hi all,

Have been playing around with various BMD systems in CMO and noticed that SM3 (and I think occasionally THAAD) continue to engage ballistic missile targets below their minimum engagement altitude (IIRC ~100km for SM3 and ~40km for THAAD)? I have attached a save file showing this behaviour in SM3 as an example.

It looks to me like CMO is currently using SM3 variants as a terminal defense weapon against ballistic missiles, rather than as an exo-atmospheric midcourse only interceptor as it should. The (USN) weapon of choice for terminal defence against ballistic missiles should actually be the SM-6, but the game currently treats an ASBM like the DF26 as too fast for it to even attempt interception?

Here is another scenario, this time with THAAD engaging ballistic missiles what looks to be well below its altitude minimum? Happy to be corrected if I am wrong here.

This has been fixed in the development branch, but it will take a while to appear in the public version.
