In sfarsit Penguin-ul e inlocuit in practica de succesorul sau desemnat, desi pentru un client surpriza.

NSM-urile propriu-zise vor veni probabil la timpul lor.

E pentru prima data cand NSM va fi lansata din MH-60R. In sensul comercial, evident testele de certificare avand deja loc.
Ar fi interesant de urmarit daca USN va prelua ideea buna a indienilor sau se va limita pe viitor la Hellfire, mai ales cu toata discutia de pe marginea “letalitatii distribuite” si a dotarii slabe a LCS-urilor.
Si ce alte verticalioate vor mai primi NSM.
Plus, cine mai are nevoie de nave rapide lansatoare de rachete – daca NPR-urile singure oricum nu au senzorii necesari pentru a exploata raza de actiune de  ~200km a rachetelor anti-nava moderne.
