Advanced Fire Control
This is an improved version of the standard fire control system representing the latest in long-range, high-resolution detection technology. A single advanced FireCon can act as two standard FireCons; it can target two separate enemy ships, target one ship for battery fire and the same or another ship for torpedo fire, and so on.
An advanced FireCon can also scan targets farther out than a standard FireCon for certain detection purposes. While a standard system is limited to 54″ (which may limit certain weapon systems if they have a range longer than 54″!), this system can reach 72″ for tracking, scanning, and targeting purposes.
Lastly, this advanced targeting system allows advanced weapon batteries to operate in special fire modes, namely needle mode and area defense mode.
Todo: Should this system allow main batteries access to more accurate firing modes?
