Which other countries would be interested in the Short Hellcat anti-fast-attack-craft missile?
Short answerNavies expecting to fight in littoral waters where fast attack craft are a serious threat.
NotesShort Hellcat is presented as a specialized anti-fast-attack-craft missile, so the panel expects interest from navies preparing to fight in littoral waters. Those confined operating areas make small, fast surface threats a recurring planning problem. Navies without that threat would have less reason to adopt a dedicated weapon for it. Geography and the expected opponent shape demand for a specialized missile.
