Heck right now I'm wondering what Lockon has to do with anything.
Most of the weapons I know of that require locks are fire and forget 
missiles. A lot of anti-shipping missiles are fired on bearings, and 
don't aquire their target till they get to the preset scan-on distance, 
kinda like SMs do under the current rules.

A lot of what is electronic warfare takes place at the detection phase 
of any engagement, so to simulate that we would need detailed detection 
rules and equipment.
