The standard family for certain, I'm not sure how much other kit
has been upgraded.

What's to upgrade? Inside horizon distance, a lot of SAMs have
demonstrable surface-to-surface modes. Sea Slug did, and Sea Dart still
does. (One excuse why the 42s don't have a SSM fit).

And the seaslug got also an impromptu land-attack mode, full descripted
in Inskip's "Ordeal by Exocet".

Personally I think that the virtues of electronics up until early 90s is
their flexibility and adaptability to procedures & modification not
envisioned by manufacturers. If recent batches of Military hardware are
hardware& software locked like the rest of current electronics, (for
example, someone can modify or make A&A on LCD TV set ?) I guess that
many troubles lies not far ahead....
