Re: M777A1 vs M777A2 Excalibur
The original VT battery I did by nature of an experiment way back in the DOS days (it was in the UK OOB) - had the cluster graphic, nil or 1 AP pen, and an upgraded HE kill. I think it had to be the same weapon class as HE cluster MRLS. That all seems to have drifted away as the OOBs got updated.
Quite frankly, nobody used the VT batteries, not even me - and I started the idea off!. They are for punching grunts and most SPMBT warfare is high intensity armoured warfare where you want the HE pen. and IIRC, they were rather expensive as they were cluster ammo?.
So probably the best thing to do is to delete the pesky things - less maintenance and all...
