TUV specifically states that a vehicle may not buy the Advantage "Noncombat Acceleration/Deceleration" to improve the number of inches they can accelerate or decelerate per hex.
Can a vehicle still buy the Advantage to reach noncombat velocity in a single Phase, as long as they still accelerate 5"/hex?
On a related note:
The AIM-7 Sparrow missile has SPD 6 and 40" Flight with a x32 multiplier and a 1 minute fuel charge.
Using the standard movement rules it would require 1 minute, 4 seconds (32 Phases) to reach maximum velocity.
Similarly, the Nuclear Space Missile; SPD 6, 40" Flight, x1000 nc, 1 minute charge; would require more than 33 minutes (1000 Phases) to reach top speed.
Should these missiles have an Advantage somewhere?
Rapid Noncombat Movement, maybe? Then the Sparrow could reach top speed in 5 Phases and the Space Missile in 10 Phases.
