A concern for sub launched anti ship missile in DWX 1.0

The SSN-27 Alfa and Tomahawk cruise missiles never lock onto any target.
Am I doing something wrong?

I'm finding the same thing Castout, the Alpha seems slightly better but Harpoons couldn't knock out a man in a fishing boat, if he were armed with a shotgun as defence. Noticed this on RA before and made a commint about it to be informed I was firing them @ to short a range (which I wasn't but there you go)

Well its possibile that the Harpoon can't acquire a target as small as a fishing boat.

My targets were both carriers, the missiles went past within about 6 nm of it and I set my seeker range even to 20nm to ensure proper lock on but all of them just flew by without changing its course to the intended target

Your target designation was off so much the CPA was SIX nautical miles? Are you sure the target really IS in seeker FOV?
