Status: offline 		20mm M3 Single mount on new A-1 Skyraiders
20mm M3 Single [20 rnds] -> Typo? Should be 200 rnds per mount.

20mm MG-151 on Avia S-199, Hispano Aviacion HA-1112, and Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-6 should not use weapon record "20mm M197 Burst [25 rnds]"
At least, 30x burst is too much. 20mm MG-151 should have 200 round per mount, so it has 8x 25 round burst.

"20mm Cannon" on LaGG-3, MiG-3, Pe-2M Buck has 30x "20mm M197 Burst [25 rnds]"

LaGG-3 use 20 mm ShVAK Cannon with 120~160 round, that is 6~8x 20rnd burst.
http://www.ww2warbirds.net/ww2htmls/lagglagg3.html
http://www.battle-fields.com/commscentre/showthread.php?16888-Yak-LaGG-MiG

Mig-3 should use 1x 12.7mm + 2x 7.62mm
http://mig3.sovietwarplanes.com/mig3/guns.html

Pe-2M should use 3*20mm B-20 520rpg
http://www.ctrl-c.liu.se/misc/ram/pe-2m.html


RF-84 has 45x "12.7mm/50 MG x 4 Burst [100 rnds]"
I don't have exact number, but 300rpg is more reasonable.
So, it should be 12x "12.7mm/50 MG x 4 Burst [100 rnds]"

CF-100 Mk 3 has 45x "12.7mm/50 MG x 4 Burst [100 rnds]"
It should be 200 round per gun. So, 8x burst.

Only after MiG-17F introduced, it got VK-1F with afterburner.
And it is not a supersonic fighter. Need to lower max speed.

Mig-17 should be Fresco A instead of Fresco B.

It seems FJ-1 have same spec with FJ-2 in CWDB400. (Length, height, and weight)
But they are different plane. (Straight wing vs Sweep wing.)
FJ-1 should not have same agility as FJ-2(2.5).

Status: offline 		I see in the EC-121D/Q Warning Star variants:

APS-45: AS/SS/2D, range 150, it should be 3D and very probaly not SS capable (I've it with máximum range 120, but I don't remember the range source, probably some books about the Constellation).

APS-95: AS/SS/3D, range 250, but should be only 2D.

If not, other APS-45 equipped variants (with APS-20) should not be capables of heigth-finding detections.

As hints, in my personal tables about the EC-121, compilated some time ago from many books:

PO-2W/WV-2/EC-121K (10/1954-1979): APS-20, APS-45, ESM. USNx142.

EC-121M (WV-2Q) (1960+): APS-20, APS-45, ESM. USNx12, SIGINT.

EC-121N (WV-3) (1955-1971): APS-20, APS-45, RWR. USN.

RC-121C (1953?+): APS-20, APS-45, ESM. USAFx10.

RC/EC-121D (1954+): APS-20, APS-45, ESM. USAFx74.

EC-121H (1960+): APS-95 (AS/SS,2D,250 nm), APS-103 (3D, 168 nm), ESM. USAFx42. Upgrade, SAGE capable.

EC-121Q Gold Digger (1962?+): APS-95 (AS/SS,2D,250 nm), APS-103 (3D, 168 nm), ESM. USAFx4, U-2 Dragonlady mission support, 966th Sq. at McCoy AFB.

EC-121R Batcat (1967-1971?): APS-42 (SS, 200? nm), ESM. USAFx30, 10 equipped with ECM.

EC-121S Coronet Solo: Pennsylvania ANGx5, for TV broadcasting. Also NC-121J.

EC-121T (1968?-1978): APS-95, not upper dome in many, ESM. USAFx22, employed for ELINT.

Thanks for all the updates, Devs - great work.
A small request - the RAN A4G Skyhawks (A/C 1639 in the CWDB) used "buddy" refueling packs fairly regularly, but these are not available in the load outs.
Is it possible to add buddy refuel stores for this A/C?

Thanks for considering.

Two sources put the ceiling of the Yak-25RV at 20,500 meters and 21,000 meters, respectfully.

Status: offline 		Not sure if this is a bug or a design issue with the ship in question. I cannot get the Andrea Doria (C 553) to launch her helicopters. When I checked, it says the helicopters are waiting for an elevator, but there is no elevator listed as part of the ship.

So...I don't know if there should be an elevator, or if the hanger should be changed--am I right that it is the type of hanger that tells the game whether or not an elevator, runway access path, etc. is needed?--or is it something else?

I'm trying to use the Andrea Doria as part of a scenario, so I hope someone can figure out if there is something wrong with the entry so it can be fixed or if I'm just doing something wrong with the aircraft. Thanks.

(the navysource page reports 33 knots speed, BUT cites only 75000 shp, and that motivated me to research about the issue).

Status: offline 		Reading about the Red Storm scenario in project, I remembered this link I hope can help (I don't know if these radar sites are implemented in the database):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_Air_Force_aircraft_control_and_warning_squadrons#Sites_Outside_the_United_States
The Iceland sites are designated H-xx, and in each individual entry of Iceland radar sites on Wikipedia are listed the radar types of each site.
Other link with links to similar stuff:
