But here's a different approach:what if TAG (de)buff would remove the need of constant missile lock to guide to the target?
This would mean that even though the missile-boat couldn't hold the missile-lock, the spotter would be able to keep the LRM volleys homing so long that there's a valid TAG debuff on the target.
Note that Missile boats would still need a completed missile-lock to fire a homing volley, the spotters however could just hold the missile lock for you. Personal use however isn't necessarily moot, because it should defeat Stealth Armor, so long as you could keep the tag at the target.
This is a more of cooperative take for the Missile-Steering concept.
Discuss.
Also: Yes, TAG needs to be invisible in standard vision, but visible in Thermal and Night.
