I prefer bigger missile racks. Abusing this weight reduction is a low trick. At least in watter it has some meaning as it's far better to hit many times for little damage rather than fewer big hits, but I still don't like doing it.

I'd take a pair LRM 15s and a second ERML plus JJs instead of the UMUs.

Soooo... you essentially want to take a design that was built for underwater operations, and turn it into one that isn't? Why not just take a variant that isn't this one?

IIRC... Using them this way helps to prevent flooding. If you get hit, just the launcher is flooded. not the whole cavity...

No, not as the rules are at the moment. For every hit you roll 2d6 and 10+ means that whole location is lost. If there's no armour the location is lost automatically.

That might have been a House rule...

Yeah. Flooding of a single component would definitely have been a house rule.
