Will it be possible to have retargeting and multiple warheads on the same missile? If so, would the missile be removed, and retargeting cease, if at least one of the "fragments" hit a target?As far as I understood it, yes, that's how it works. The retargeting basically just guarantees that 1 of the fragments will hit the target and the other fragments have a chance to miss.
It doesn't work that way. Multi-warhead missiles release their submunitions at a specified distance from the target. There is no targeting in the sense of %chance-to-hit involved in that process. After they are released, each submnition would retarget independently if it has that capability.Are you thinking about missiles that carry other missiles? I think he was asking about the new fragmentation missiles specifically.
