A hypothetical scenario of 6xF18 armed with 8xSDBII each are attacking a single FDI Belhara HN (16 Aster 30, 21 RAM, Strales Dart). Could they penetrate a modern general purpose frigate?
SeaFire GaN seems to work great against multiple threats from different directions but the lack of a medium range missile (in quad or double pack) is evident missing one critical layer
60 nm of Aster 30 proved not to be enough to counter a fighter armed with 60 nm range SDB II from High Altitude. The strike fighter quickly dropped their payload and disengage from the area

The multi FCR channels that #SeaFire can handle proved extremely important also for the effective guidance of #RAM CIWS and #Strales which worked quite effectively together.
#Belhara suffered two hits (1 during saturation and one inevitable after #Strales and #RAM emptied their magazines). While the 100 kg (48 kg each warhead) explosives might not be enough to sink a frigate it caused serious damage which in wartime might mean reduced capabilities or
or mission kill and the ship should return to port for repairs. Actually the impact of the warheads in this simulation in #CMO struck the helicopter hangar and also a quad Exocet launcher and IRST
