RE:[FT] proposed IF ships

Chris DeBoe said-

1,

mass.

This has raised a idea or two-

Targeting beacon
Replaces standard SML round (mass=2)
Range=ER SML (got to have some advantages for no dammage)
Cost=x4
Dammage=none, instead, any round(s) that suvive PDS lock a homing beacon
onto the hull of the ship targeted. This beacon allows any SML fired at
the
ship with the beacon to gain a +1 to the number of missiles to hit role,
and
also bypassed the "banzai jammer" and/or the target the nearest ship.
Effect
negated by ECM (indevidual or area).

Also, watching gundam (General Non Discontinuaty Armuored Mobile suit)
raised another idea, instead of using banzai jammers, how about using
inflateable ballons that mimic the outline of the ship, and emmit a
signiture that confuses the target sensors of the missiles. This device
would only work with the use of ECM, to degrage the sensors on the
missiles.
The mass of the decoys would be 2, the cost would be 5, and carries 3
decoys
(only one launched at once). Cost and mass only a guess at the moment.

Comments? or arguments anyone?
