Game Version: Beta 1662

Subject
Units are launching more weapons that WRA is configured to.

Description
In the attached scenario at approx 0351Z, the Houthis launch are 50 CM-200 Ghader AShMs at CVN-75 in the Red Sea. The USN DDGs respond with 123 SAMs in the test I conducted, ignoring the fact that the WRA is set to engage 1 SM-2/SM-6 per target for all incoming missiles. This isn't a "look, shoot, look" situation either where the SMs are missing; the SAMs are mostly fired en masse. As you can see in the screenshots below, some of the Vampires have upto 4 SAMs targeted at them. If you leave the scen running a little longer, the same issue will be displayed with SM-3s engaging ASBMs; contrary to WRA, the DDGs will launch 2 missiles at each target in the same salvo.
To make it easier to check the "Losses + Expenditures" log, I've cleared off the initial engagement between USN Super Hornets and the OWA UASs as the DDGs didn't get involved in that fight to save taxpayer dollars.

Thanks for the report

FYI, the fix will take some time and unfortunately won't be in the next release. It's not a trivial issue since, different weapons from different units are accounted as 1, but the issue has been acknowledged and we will work in a solution

Understood, the work on the issue is much appreciated.

I saw that there were some WRA issues but I didn't see this one mentioned. Either way, this issue persists in Build 1676.

Comparison, missiles expended in the defense B1825 vs B1859 in TempestII scenario.



- More air launched missiles are used.

- Less naval launched missiles are used.

- Close range weapons needed.

- Some of the Khalij Fars anti-ship missiles seems to be ignored, they will cause no harm.

- In total less missiles expended: 140 vs 91.

Did you change the AAW setting to only allocate one type of interceptor per weapon/air target?

I did not touch anything, just run the scenario in both builds.

This does indeed now seemed to be fixed, thanks!
I put the WRA on: "For Weapon Targets, WRA Quantity is Fulfilled by any Guided Weapon".
