Rain08 -> [Fixed] SM-2 Blk IIIC still requiring active radar from firing platform? (5/7/2020 7:29:49 AM)

Pretty much the what the title says. I assumed that the RIM-66M-6 SM-2MR Blk IIIC (#3536) will behave like an SM-6 where it can engage OTH targets. However, that is not the case. Also, the SM-2 can't be fired at targets with good LoS and track from other units (E-2D with the Aegis datalink).
The .scen file will show DDG 103 Truxton equipped with the SM-2 Blk IIIC and the SM-6 Blk IA. Two targets are present, J-16s at 36k feet and YJ-83s at 60 feet, to the west of the ship. WCS is on hold so you need to do manual targeting. The SM-6 can just fire at both target types, while the SM-2 still needs active radar (and LoS).
