On MRTP-33 Vessels is not enough Place for Fire Control Radar or other Target Iluminating Equipment to Track Targets for Harpoons, but with Datalink MRTP-33 is able to launch Harpoons on enemy Ships.
I know MRTP can programm Harpoons by recieving data on Datalink and I know also that MRTP have a Navigation/Surface Search Radar but I doubt the Rada can detect Targets within the Maximum Range of Harpoons. When MRTP is using Penguins I see now Problem in this Matter.
Harpoon (and similar missiles which employ radar altimeter and Global Positioning System [GPS] assisted inertial navigation, in combination with active radar terminal homing guidance) requires neither a fire control radar or target illuminating.
The MRTP-33 can program Harpoons using data from its own mast mounted navigation/surface search radar (e.g. the Decca TM 1226, which is in service in TN and also used in conjunction with e.g. the Norwegian Penguin missile) and/or data received by datalink from e.g. radar equipped Maritime Patrol Aircraft and Naval helicopters or coastal radar stations.
I doubt that a Decca 1226 is of much use with the Harpoon missile, Decca range is less than 50km as far as I know.
Ah what is the operational range of C-705 missile?
