Copy of SFP1/WOE/WOV patched to the latest standard (as of 03 Oct 07)

Notes and limitations:

The AGM-136A was prototype for a cruise missile that was designed to loiter over a battlefield, then attack a SAM radar when it lit up. Basically, it was a combination a cruise missiles range/duration time, and the AGM-88 HARM ability to kill SAM radars. It however did not proceed beyond prototype stage before being terminated in 1992.

The paint scheme is 'best guess', based on the few pictures available.

The TW engine does not support a 'loiter' type missile...so best way to use this weapon is like a standard ARM...except with more range.
