Une autre idée a pris corps selon laquelle il serait possible de mettre au point un missile de défense de théâtre relativement économique en remplaçant l'ogive du Standard par un deuxième étage guidé qui comporterait un réseau plan focal infrarouge à 256 x 256 éléments, un nouveau système de guidage et une arme à énergie cinétique 18kg.
