Default Has the DW Orion ever had Harpoons?

G'day guys,

For ages, I'd thought that RA removed the Harpoon from the P-3 Orion and replaced it with the Maverick. Then I rechecked the manual and watched Chazly's Orion tutorial (from 8 years ago!!) and they don't mention the DW Orion having Harpoons either...just Mavericks!

Was I imagining that the original DW Orion could fire Harpoon all these years??

I think it'd be good to have as a capability - but for such an old game, small player base and the effort required to code it in, it's probably a bridge too far!

Anyway, thought I'd raise it!



Cheers guys,
Stew

Thanks Alcon - yeah, shame they've never been added.

Yeah, something cool is that the Argentinian Orions could fire Exocets.
