I do not see why something similar cannot be done for missiles.
Hmmm, you know I did try something like that but I never thought to use unlimited range in the DB, I just tried to "take over" the shutdown function in the doctrine. Maybe we'll have the YJ-83 working the way it's supposed to after all!

EDIT: Wait, no. I did think of that before. The problem is that the decision to engage is based on the DB range, so if it's unlimited, they'll shoot at things that are out of range according to the doctrine runout calculation.
