CAMM-ER is a wholly Italian product so should be fine.
I dont think there is any current plan for VLS launched AShM's- sort of.
I have a very good suspicion that P282 is a variant of YJ-21E. The original specifications also said it must be shipborne, its the most logical option. YJ-21E+VLS=P282. But, the PN seems to be deploying Harbah onboard their ships and are commutated to it by the way it looks. Perhaps what we could see is a mixed loadout? But that would require two independent VLS systems which makes me seem its unlikely. Im not actually sure how P282 and Harbah/SMASH go hand in hand, unless, the PN has plans for another ship type that is not disclosed yet(052DE?- but again i dont see this happening, its all VERY confusing)
I don't see Turkey as a long term partner, unfortunately, over there, it will be very dependant on who's in office. I can see another few decades of close cooperation while their industries are still in their fledgling stages, then when they start to chase larger, more lucrative contracts, political considerations will come into play and they will want to distance themselves from us unless something changes in our political standing on the global stage. Remember, money trumps all, this miskeen idea of turks doing this and that out of love is so so so naive, people forget, the Turks are after money, not too long ago they were chasing an Indian navy fleet tanker contract while others out there were chanting Turkey Pakistan Bhai Bhai lol.
I think CAMM-ER and Italy as a whole will remain reliable, our global image and rep is at its worst, yet even then, Italy is happy to work with us and offer us high end solutions, i cant see them withdrawing that support in the future. Like, we arent important enough to them and arent relevant enough so they are happy to secure easy uncontested contracts with us. This is also likely why Turkey is pushing for collaboration with us, simply because they know its a guaranteed contract.
Yes, they will be carrying Harbah
Once again, i think CAMM-ER is a very reliable option that wont be going anywhere
I dont think this will happen. I think what you should focus on is the Yarmook class, if like the graphics, theyre receiving non GWS26 VLS, then we can comfortably say that that will be the system found on the JCF, not the shrooms
