A cut-down version of the SGM-2 series of missiles with a booster attached, designed for defensive purposes. This missile can get out to long range quickly and then transition to a highly maneuverable final stage excellent for taking out small threats like missiles and spacecraft.

Stages

As a boosted missile, the SDM2 has a fast first stage (the "boost" stage) and a slow maneuverable second stage (the "main" stage). The staging is triggered when ANY of the following occur:

  • A range-capable seeker (e.g. ACT, CMD) sees a target AND the missile is within staging range of the target AND no higher priority seeker sees a target
  • A direction-only seeker (e.g. ARAD, HOJ, SAH, WAKE) sees a target AND no higher priority seeker sees a target
  • All seekers and reject validators are jammed (e.g. ACTr/[CMD] will not stage when radar jammed unless also command jammed)

The boost stage on SDM2 is generally tuned to have maximum speed, with the lowest maneuver that attains the desired range. SDM2 typically use max speed as the 6+km range is more than enough for any anti-craft missile.

The main stage on SDM2 has a few specific, which generally sit around 180 m/s speed. Note that direction-only seekers force a minimum range (e.g. ARAD forces the sprint stage to have at least 3km range, preferably more).
