FFG Chaff?

If I fire chaff from the FFG, does it cause a degradation in my Air/Surface radar detection ranges? ie, will it limit my ability to pick up incoming missiles???

No .. it just creates new, more juicy target for the missile. No degradation (AFAIK). If you want extra good missile coverage, use helos and watch link.

Also chaff really are efective. Yesterday I wasted all LA's TASM load at Kuznetcov due to one stupid chaff. All 12 (or so) missiles went after the chaff.

If you fire missile one by one, AA gets them. If you fire them all at once, they can all follow same chaff. Solution ? Torpedo
